Every neighborhood has two kinds of people:
Those who wait for someone else to fix things…
and those who quietly step up and make the neighborhood better for everyone.

𝗥𝗟𝗔𝗢 𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽.

We are the people who show up.
We are the people who care.
We are the people who donate our time.

Your dues are not just a payment — 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗹.
A signal that you believe in a neighborhood that works.
A signal that you want a voice in what happens here.
𝗔 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝘄𝗮𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗲𝗹𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝗶𝘁.

HEY! In case you have not heard:

🔥AriZona HARD is rolling out a huge summer price drop — not just the 12‑packs, but the singles too.

This is a statewide push running June 29 through at least the end of the year, timed for the peak summer heat.

If you want the deal, ask your Anheuser‑Busch rep — they’ve got the details. Remember, this new price does not start until June 29th

If you want to pass a deal on to your customers, this is the time.

Big drop. Big volume. Big summer.

Oklahoma retailers deserve clear, timely information — especially during session.
We’re continuing to expand the ways we share compliance updates, legislative alerts, and industry guidance.

Facebook now offers an option for members who want to support the work we do to keep retailers informed and represented.

Our focus remains the same: strong advocacy, clear communication, and protecting the interests of Oklahoma’s retail liquor community.

Let’s be blunt:
The groups trying to reshape Oklahoma alcohol laws are organized, funded, and active.

Are we?

Every time a bill gets introduced that threatens our margins, our hours, or our ability to compete, someone paid to push that bill is sitting in the room.

If independent liquor stores don’t show up with the same unity and force, we lose by default.

RLAO is the only shield we have — and right now, too many stores are sitting on the sidelines hoping someone else will fight for them.

Hope is not a strategy.
Membership is.

If you own a liquor store in Oklahoma, you should be in RLAO.
Period.

𝗙𝗔𝗜𝗥 𝗘𝗡𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗖𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗜𝗦𝗡’𝗧 𝗢𝗣𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟.
Not for you.
Not for me.
Not for 𝗔𝗡𝗬 Oklahoma liquor retailer trying to survive in a system that changes the rules every other week.

Here’s the truth nobody else will say out loud:

If independent stores don’t stand together, 𝘄𝗲 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗳𝗳 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗯𝘆 𝗼𝗻𝗲.
Grocery chains aren’t slowing down.
Distributors aren’t easing up.
Out‑of‑state big box liquor is still pushing to change the rules.
ABLE isn’t getting more consistent.

And every time one of us gets hit with a surprise inspection, a contradictory ruling, new legislation that harms us, or a margin‑killing policy shift…
𝘄𝗲 𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗶𝘁.

That’s why RLAO exists.
Not as a club.
Not as a suggestion.
But as 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗢𝗡𝗟𝗬 𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱 𝗱𝗲𝗳𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲 Oklahoma liquor stores have left.

If you’re an owner, 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱… 𝗼𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗱.
There is no middle.

𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝗥𝗟𝗔𝗢.
𝗣𝗮𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝘂𝗲𝘀.
𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗻𝘀, 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲, 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝘃𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲.

Because “𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴” 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲 has never protected a single store.

Every call we make, every meeting we attend, every fight we take on at the Capitol — we do it because we believe in Oklahoma’s independent liquor stores.

None of us — none of the board — receive a dime from RLAO.
We volunteer our time because this industry matters.
Every board member is a retail owner, just like you.

But printing materials, hiring a lobbyist, hosting meetings, and fighting for fair laws costs money.

That’s where your dues come in.

Your membership keeps Oklahoma’s independent liquor stores strong.
