State Leaders Build Support for
CPA Annual Dinner
CPA’s relationship with progressive legislators in the states is the
lynchpin of its work and the foundation for its organization-building strategy.
This year’s Annual Awards Dinner, to be held June 24 in Washington, DC, is no
exception.
State Captains, working with Dinner Committee Co-chairs Donna
Callejon, Senior Vice President of Corporate Development at Fannie Mae, and
Wisconsin state Rep. Antonio Riley, are spearheading the effort to build support
for CPA’s Annual Dinner with public and private sector partners in their
home states. Their work is creating a stronger network of progressive leaders
across the states.
- Our thanks to the 1999 state table captains:
(List in formation)
- Florida state Rep. Tony Hill
- Hawaii state Rep. Roy Takumi
- Hawaii state Rep. Hermina Morita
- Maine state Senate Majority Leader Rochelle

Pennsylvania state Sen. Allyson Schwartz
- South Carolina state Rep. Bessie Moody-Lawrence
- Texas state Sen. Rodney Ellis

This year’s Dinner will honor Anne Wexler and Joseph Duffey, lifetime
partners in moving progressive policy, AFL-CIO Executive Vice President
