Our endorsements are rooted in a commitment to building a stronger, more inclusive Orange County and advancing the voices and priorities of the communities we serve. Throughout each election cycle, we research candidates at every level of government and engage directly with those seeking to represent our communities. Through questionnaires, conversations, and interviews, we take time to understand each candidate’s experience, priorities, vision, and commitment to the issues that matter most to Orange County residents.
From local races to campaigns at the state and federal level, our goal is to help build lasting civic power and support candidates who share our vision for a more just, equitable, and thriving Orange County.
