Bradley Prize awarded to three 'extraordinary' conservative leaders

The Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation is awarding its $300,000 Bradley Prize to three conservative leaders, chosen from 60 nominees.

Former Texas Sen. Phil Gramm, University of Florida professor James Hankins, and Rabbi Meir Soloveichik were named the three 2026 winners of the prestigious prize. Their “accomplishments reflect The Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation’s mission to restore, strengthen, and protect the principles and institutions of American exceptionalism,” the organization said.
