The National Press Foundation established an important new award to recognize the federal government’s effect on business and economic life in America awarded for the first time at the 2011 Annual Awards Dinner. The award, named “the Feddie,” comes with a cash prize of $5,000 and lesser amounts to runners-up. An online application and instructions are posted over the summer with applications due early fall.
