This document outlines a communication plan to educate Oklahoma firefighters and defeat pension reform efforts. The plan has two parts - education and action. It will educate members on key arguments against the reform through repetitive messaging via multiple media like email, text, mail and phone calls. The education aims to motivate members to take strategic political actions like calls, letters, social media posts and visits timed to legislative events to influence lawmakers. A small committee will manage the plan's efficient execution and quick response to changing events. It will also use a recruitment system to exponentially increase members and political actions. Kueh Marketing is able to fully implement this plan.
