Some of the most creative and important work being done anywhere on the Right is found at the Sam Adams Alliance. One of the best things these folks do is recognize and reward the finest examples of citizen activism around the country via the Sammies Awards.
This is one tremendous program, friends, and I encourage you to enter it, tell your friends and neighbors about it, and do everything else you can think of to advance the Sammies. Here’s how all the basic info on the awards:
