Prop 36: Bridging the Gap Between Voter Intent & Action

Event

February 11, 2026

Public safety and quality of life are essential to a strong business climate, and California voters made their expectations clear with the passage of Proposition 36 in 2024. Join Orange County Business Council on Wednesday, February 11, from 12 PM – 2 PM (PST) at Orange Coast College for a timely discussion on the implementation process of Prop 36 and the growing gap between voter intent and state action, as the law moves forward without sufficient funding to support enforcement and local implementation.

This free event brings together Orange County Sheriff Don Barnes, California State Senator Catherine Blakespear, Orange County Senior Assistant District Attorney Robert Mestman, and Irvine Police Department Chief Michael Kent to examine how implementation gaps affect business operations and community safety. Attendees will also receive tools to engage the administration for funding support and learn practical strategies for partnering with law enforcement to combat emerging crime trends and report crime more effectively.

As employers and job creators, the business community plays a critical role in advocating for policies that enhance public safety and protect the quality of life in Orange County, ensuring this region remains a place where businesses and communities can thrive.

Space is limited. RSVP below to secure your seat.

Speakers: Sheriff Don Barnes (Orange County Sheriff’s Department), California State Senator Catherine Blakespear (CA – District 38), The Honorable Robert Mestman (Senior Assistant District Attorney, Orange County), Michael Kent (Irvine Police Department)

Moderated by: Paul Simonds (OCBC)
