Other groups give out baubles and plaques to politicians… Texas Scorecard presents engraved swords to grassroots activists!
The annual Conservative Leader Award highlights the men and women of the grassroots who work to make the Lone Star State shine brighter than ever.
The award recipients are nominated by their peers—men and women who have seen them step up as citizen-leaders in their neighborhoods and communities. The award is presented in the month of November, with honorees recognized year-round at events statewide.
