Mandate Tornado Shelters in All New Oklahoma Homes

The Issue

  Oklahoma is situated in the heart of Tornado Alley, experiencing an average of 62 tornadoes annually. These natural disasters pose a significant threat to life and property.

  Installing tornado shelters in all newly built homes can drastically reduce fatalities and injuries during such events. According to FEMA, having a safe room or storm shelter can provide near-absolute protection during extreme weather conditions. By mandating tornado shelters in new constructions, we can ensure the safety and well-being of Oklahoma residents.

  Sign this petition to urge lawmakers to require tornado shelters in all new homes across the state!
