For many years individuals through out the County of Los Angeles have endured many challenges in the political arena. Due to various factors, some may have felt their voice would not make a difference. The efforts to address a wrong would be wasted energy. Energy needed to provide for their families and at their place of employment. These are your friends, relatives and co-workers. People just like you!

At some point everyone reaches a point of decision. No matter the motivating force, a point is reached. At that time a decision is made to take action or forever give up the will to fight.

When that point is reached, it does not matter the size of the foe or the odds of success. Engaging in the battle and the will to fight is a victory in itself.

When the three LA County Supervisors made their decision to remove the cross from the county seal and not allow the people to vote, that point was reached.

At that time, individuals such as Dennis Prager, Jeffers Dodge, Sandra Needs and many others, who were not acquainted and who shared many different ideals came together and began to fight against the wrong done to the residents of the county.

We are men and women who have had made the decision, not to sit back and allow our freedoms to be removed without a fight.

David Hernandez, a community-advocate and former congressional candidate filed the documents needed to begin the effort. By filing for a petition to place the matter on the ballot, the people were given a vehicle they could use to address their grievances.

The Committee to Support the Los Angeles County Seal was established to provide the people with a source of information, materials and support.

Our volunteers are leaders in their communities, in their churches and civic groups. They range from elected officials to retired county employees.

We are an army of grassroots community advocates with the willingness and determination to fight for the rights granted to us as Americans.
