2021 Rising Star Awards

On December 9, 2021, the Millennial Action Project (MAP) will recognize legislators from the State Future Caucus Network (SFCN) during our fourth annual Rising Star Awards.

The Rising Star Award highlights young leaders—one Republican and one Democrat—and their contributions to the SFCN over the last year. It aims to celebrate SFCN members who embody MAP’s vision of transcending political tribalism. The Rising Star Award honors leaders who take initiative in shepherding bipartisan legislation that addresses priority issues in today’s political climate. Congratulations to this year’s Rising Star Awardees:

Arkansas State Representative Jamie Scott

Connecticut State Representative Devin Carney

The Cherisse Eatmon Collective Impact Award recognizes an outstanding state caucus for their future-focused leadership and political bridge-building. We are honored to announce that this year’s recipient is the Kansas Future Caucus.

Join us for an inspiring celebration of our nation’s boldest young leaders — at our limited capacity, private venue, the festive Colada Shop at Washington, D.C.’s Wharf! Our venue will include heated outdoor and indoor spaces, a fantastic menu, and cocktails and hot drinks.
