Who We Are
The 1907 Group was founded by Matt Latham and Jason Dunnington, bringing together decades of experience in Oklahoma politics, policy, and advocacy. One of us a seasoned consultant, the other a former lawmaker, we combine different perspectives and shared values to deliver results for our clients.
We’re joined by Jamie Benda, an associate with valuable experience as a former legislative staffer, who adds depth to our policy analysis and strengthens our reach at the Capitol.
Together, we are relationship-builders with a track record of shaping legislation, navigating complex regulatory challenges, and creating strategies that last beyond a single session. Whether for businesses, associations, or nonprofits, our work is grounded in collaboration and tailored to the unique needs of each client.
