Overview

• State Superintendent Ryan Walters announced a plan and partnership to establish Turning Point USA Club America chapters on every Oklahoma high school campus.
• Walter's department said students can form chapters with at least three peers and will receive a field representative, help finding a teacher sponsor, and activism kits with materials like pocket Constitutions.
• The Oklahoma State Department of Education is investigating claims that about a dozen districts did not observe a requested moment of silence for Charlie Kirk, with some districts saying they were unaware of any probe.
• In a separate interview reported by Newsweek, Walters warned districts that refuse to host a chapter could face actions affecting accreditation and certificates.
• TPUSA says chapter inquiries have doubled from roughly 60,000 to more than 120,000 after Kirk’s memorial, the fall campus tour has resumed under CEO Erika Kirk, and local chapters report growth, including new sign-ups at Marshall University and a surge past 500 members at Texas A&M.
