HPE Public Leaders
HPE is currently piloting its endorsement, evaluation, and accountability framework.
The first Honor Party Endorsed public leaders will be announced as the program develops.
We are building the standards, processes, and accountability systems necessary to ensure that the designation is meaningful and trusted.
Current Status
What Does It Mean To Be Honor Party Endorsed?
HONOR PARTY ENDORSED is not a political party affiliation
It is a public commitment to a shared set of standards for honorable leadership.
Public leaders who receive the Honor Party Endorsement commit to:
• Conscience before party
• Truthfulness
• Respect for democratic norms
• Human rights
• Stewardship
• Transparency and accountability
The endorsement is intended to help voters identify leaders who have voluntarily committed themselves to these standards and who are willing to be publicly accountable to them.
Honor Party Endorsed public leaders may disagree strongly on policy.
They may belong to different political parties.
They may support very different approaches to solving public problems.
What they share is a commitment to the same principles of honorable leadership.
"Your representative owes you, not his industry only, but his judgment; and he betrays, instead of serving you, if he sacrifices it to your opinion."
— Edmund Burke
