We need good people working in and around politics. These awards will help to make sure that money isn\u2019t the obstacle that keeps good people out. We are grateful to the Anderson family for this expression of support for the work our program does.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Clayton H.
