Horn Statement on National Julius Jones Petition Day | 2019-12-11 | 2019 | 2019-12 | Democrat | House | OK | Kendra Horn | H001083 | horn.house.gov | legacy | OKLAHOMA CITY, OK On Wednesday, December 11, the Julius Jones Coalition is leading a national petition and social media campaign supporting Oklahoma death row prisoner, Julius Jones' clemency application. In October, Congresswoman Kendra Horn (OK-5) sent Governor Kevin Stitt a letter requesting that the Governor review Jones' case and implement reforms that prevent the use of the death penalty in cases where uncertainty remains. Congresswoman Horn releases the following statement: I stand with Oklahoma City community and faith leaders and advocates nationwide in calling on our Governor to consider Julius Jones' petition for clemency. Ending Julius's life when there is so much uncertainty in his case would be an injustice, and we cannot answer one injustice with another. During the holiday season, I hope that we can appeal to our better angels for a more humane, just resolution to this case. Congresswoman Horn's October letter to Governor Stitt is available here. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
