Orange County, CA – The Orange County Young Republicans (OCYR’s) have always taken an active role in working to help elect the Republican candidates they support. From walking precincts to staffing phone banks the OCYR’s have contributed countless hours of grassroots activism over the years to help strengthen the Republican Party for the next generation. Today the OCYR’s go a step further by announcing the creation of the Orange County Young Republican Political Action Committee, which is unprecedented in this county.

“"We plan to impact this election cycle by not only doing what we always do with grassroots support, but we are going to show financial support as well” said Shawn Fago, President of the Orange County Young Republicans. “Bottom line, candidates cannot get their message out without money, and we are stepping up to elect candidates whom we support.”"

The Orange County Young Republicans have secured the services of a professional fundraiser (Dez & Associates), a treasurer, and a political consultant to help ensure the success of this endeavor. The organization has previously been supported by major political donors Buck Johns and Paul Folino.

"“I am pleased to see young people stepping up with funds to elect our leaders. It is an essential part of the political process,"” commented Buck Johns.

“"The Orange County Young Republicans are not only going to be a significant part of electing candidates with their hands-on abilities, but they are going to do it with direct contributions and independent expenditures…not many organizations can say that they do both. I am honored to endorse this PAC,"” said Paul Folino.

The Orange County Young Republicans are an organization consisting of young professionals who are committed to a common sense approach to politics, low taxation and limited government. For more information about the organization visit www.ocyr.org
