It’s that time of the year when the Millennial Action Project (MAP) celebrates its network of dedicated young policymakers at our Rising Star Award Ceremony. The Rising Star Awards highlight bold young leaders — one Republican, one Democrat, and one Future Caucus — from our State Future Caucus Network, who best represent MAP’s mission to transcend political divides through public service.

The award recognizes bipartisan legislators from our State Future Caucus Network (SFCN) who have embodied MAP's mission to transcend political tribalism through their public service.

On Tuesday, December 10th, the Millennial Action Project hosted the second annual Rising Star Awards. It took place at the Darlington House, located at 1610 20th St NW in Washington, DC. During this event we heard from board member Nick Maschari, and we announced the winners of this year’s Rising Star Award: Oregon State Rep. Julie Fahey, Wisconsin State Rep. Adam Neylon, and Wisconsin State Rep. Amanda Stuck.

On October 2nd, 2018, Millennial Action Project celebrated five years of transcending political partisanship at an anniversary event hosted in Washington, DC. The evening reception highlighted MAP’s work launching Future Caucuses in Congress and twenty-seven state legislatures, and awarded two young elected officials the inaugural MAP Rising Star award for achievements in bipartisanship.
