2002 PROGRESSIVE AWARDS

Citizen Action of New York is pleased to present this year's Annual Progressive Awards. 2002 honorees include Mrs. Dorothy Collier, for creating an environment where youth and seniors can work together and learn from each other; NYS Assemblyman Sam Hoyt, for his determination to fight for increased education and afterschool funding, to save teacher jobs, and not to accept Governor Pataki's "bare bones" budget; and CWA Local 14177, for their resolve to use their struggle against injustice to stand with others in our community in their fight for just working conditions, fair trade, human rights, a clean environment, peace, and campaign finance reform.

This year is extra special. As part of the 2002 Progressive Awards Citizen Action will bestow a special "Lifetime Achievement Award" on retiring Deputy Speaker of the New York State Assembly, Honorable Arthur O. Eve. A tireless advocate for a quality education for all our children, Deputy Speaker Eve will be specially honored for his lifetime of advocacy on behalf of all people regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, income, and age.

All proceeds will benefit Citizen Action of New York
