The Orange County Advocacy Group (TAG) is a public affairs firm specializing in local government. Principals Debbie Trabattoni, and Christie McDaniel have well over 50 years combined experience working with elected officials, government organizations, community leaders and business interests in Orange County.

TAG is effective in local government advocacy precisely because of that experience, in combination with our long-standing relationships nurtured with key decision-makers and their staff. We have an in-depth knowledge of local government and we remain active in Orange County politics. And we understand the nuances that make each jurisdiction and agency unique. As a result, we are well positioned to assist our clients and to cut through the often encountered "red tape."

Integrity and personal attention create the cornerstone for how we serve each client. We have a proven track record of fully comprehending our client’s needs, crafting a strategic plan, building agency or community consensus around key issues, and achieving the desired result. In short, we get it, and we get it done!
