OCCCO leaders from across the organization began meeting in the spring to discuss how this year’s $26 billion state budget gap would impact low-income communities in Orange County.  Voting in favor of the proposed tax extensions, OCCCO leaders from San Juan Capistrano, Mission Viejo, Anaheim, Fullerton, Garden Grove, Costa Mesa, and Santa Ana held two press conferences, a diverse faith and fun event and made over 700 phone calls to local constituents, all to call on swing vote State Senator Tom Harman to vote to pass the extensions.   To culminate the campaign, OCCCO leaders joined 1,000 leaders from across PICO CA for an action in front of the State Capitol in Sacramento.
