2021 Government Hall of Fame

The federal government’s roles and missions extend far and wide, including protecting and defending the United States, exploring space, gathering weather and climate data, and overseeing massive health and social welfare programs. The annual Government Hall of Fame Gala gathers current and former government officials and stakeholders to celebrate the public sector leaders who have made historic achievements and advances in these and other areas of government.

Each year, we honor the newest class of Government Hall of Fame inductees and the winners of the Theodore Roosevelt Government Leadership Awards. The Government Hall of Fame celebrates distinguished civil servants who have demonstrated sustained achievement and unparalleled dedication to public service throughout their careers, and the Theodore Roosevelt Government Leadership Awards recognize an exclusive class of federal managers, executives and industry leaders for their recent achievements in delivering on government’s promise to serve the American people.
