John F. Kennedy "Profile in Courage" Award nominations...

(This is sponsored by the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library)

Greetings,

The John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award celebrates courageous public officials who stand up for what they believe in and put our national interest before their own political interest.

That type of leadership is more important today than it ever has been.

I want to know which elected officials you find courageous. Can you tell us the story of someone who took a stand and suffered tough political consequences to fight for what’s right?

We’re looking for nominations from all levels of government. Previous winners include not just Presidents and Governors, but also small town Mayors and local state officials.

NOMINATE AN ELECTED OFFICAL NOW

Submit your nomination today, and if your nominee wins, you could have a chance to see them at the Profile in Courage Award ceremony next spring.

Thanks,



Jack Schlossberg
