HB 2467's history ...
Sherry Hamby, a bullied target, professional children's advocate, expert amateur lobbyist, a one-woman dynamo is the catalyst for introducing Oklahoma to the WBI anti-bullying 'Healthy Workplace' legislative solution.
Sherry was fired by her employer, in part because he noted that she was an advocate for the bill, just as she was a successful advocate for families and children.
