John,

Political reform is gaining steam on Capitol Hill.

On Wednesday, we hosted the inaugural Teddy Roosevelt Courage Awards to recognize four members of Congress for their outstanding commitment to bipartisan political reform and election security.

The honorees for this year’s awards were: Sen. James Lankford (R-OK), Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI), and Rep. Derek Kilmer (D-WA). These four leaders have been active champions of reform efforts and have consistently reached across the aisle to work on legislation to fix our broken political system.
