<![CDATA[Sally Yates Has Been Nominated For JFK Profile In Courage Award]]>The award, which has been given out each year since 1990, “recognizes a public official (or officials) at the federal, state or local level whose actions demonstrate the qualities of politically courageous leadership in the spirit of Profiles in Courage, President Kennedy’s 1957 Pulitzer prize-winning book, which recounts the stories of eight U.S. Senators who risked their careers by embracing unpopular positions for the greater good.”

Essentially, the award celebrates officials who choose the public interest over partisanship, “who do what is right, rather than what is expedient.”
