OMB Watch Celebrates Its 20th Anniversary by Honoring Public Interest Heroes

OMB Watch celebrates its 20th Anniversary on October 9, 2003. In honor of our banner year event, the board of directors and staff have established two recognition efforts. The Public Interest Hall of Fame recognizes 12 "unsung heroes" whose everyday work makes a difference in pursuing government accountability, citizen participation or social justice. These were selected from more than 70 nominations. The Public Interest Rising Star Award acknowledges the outstanding, dedicated work of three younger leaders and encourages their continued participation in the public interest. The first class of inductees will be honored during OMB Watch's anniversary reception. Information on the honorees and event details are available online.
