Today the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum will be reintroducing the Oklahoma Standard Statewide Initiative.

Officials with the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum say as both Americans and Oklahomans prepare for the 25th anniversary of the Oklahoma City Bombing, officials, along with OKC Mayor David Holt, Oklahoma Secretary of Human Services and Early Childhood Initiatives Justin Brown, and Executive Vice President and General Manager of Oklahoma City Thunder Sam Presti, will be reintroducing the Oklahoma Standard.

The Oklahoma Standard was born from the response of the community after the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, officials say, and still is as relevant today during the coronavirus pandemic.

Officials also say that an "exciting announcement" will be made about the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon and the Williams Route 66 Tulsa Marathon.

The press conference is set to begin at 2 p.m. today, April 9.
