SHRM has a Government Affairs Core Leadership Area where you may use the resources they have gathered to help with your volunteer efforts surrounding legislative branches. This includes recorded webinars and conference calls with presentations for your education.
The Oklahoma State Legislator site allows you to find the Oklahoma State House Representative and Oklahoma State Senator that represent you based on your voting district. You can track bills by signing up your email account for notifications as well as review meeting notes from House and Senate meetings.
The United States Senate maintains a site that allows you to research Senators and their committees. It also provides access to legislation and records as well as the art & history located in the Senate building. There is a visitors page and one for research.
The United States House of Representatives is the primary site to track your Representative. It details the Representatives and their committees as well as any legislative activities. There is a nice section on learning entitled The House Explained.

Thomas Jefferson once said, "America is not governed by the majority, but by the majority of those who participate." Jefferson's belief about the impact political advocacy had on Government 200+ years ago still rings very true today. That's why SHRM, in an effort to enhance the visibility of the HR profession among policymakers in Washington and the states, has embarked on a 5-year initiative to establish the SHRM Advocacy Team (aka The 'A-Team'); a network of SHRM member advocates throughout all 435 congressional districts across America.
