DAY OF DECISION (DOD) Community Gatherings in Response to Federal Prop 8 Trial Please join your local community leaders and organizations for a United Community Response on the day Judge Walker issues his ruling on the Federal Prop 8 case which we expect him to publish shortly. (We don't know when and we may only get a day's notice or less). Orange County responds to Judge Walker's ruling with a gathering at Sasscer Park, Santa Ana, at 7 pm to speak out in unity for justice for our families. As we await Judge Walker's federal trial court ruling on Prop 8, our local communities are poised for what we hope to be a positive decision.
