About Webby Advocate of the Year
Webby Advocate of the Year is selected by a committee chaired by the NAACP and IADAS, and it aims to honor a recipient who uses their online platform to amplify their commitment to social justice advocacy. From using social media to disseminate poignant messages to activating a movement by using digital tools, the recipient of the award will embody a drive to energize diverse communities and create lasting social change for the betterment of society.
Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett has become a bold and galvanizing force for justice, equity, and civic engagement. Through her dynamic use of digital platforms, she has sparked national conversations and mobilized action around some of today’s most urgent issues—including voting rights, racial equity, and housing access. With a commanding online voice, she bridges policy and people, ensuring that every post, moment, and soundbite fuels change.
In 2024, Crockett introduced impactful legislation like the Combating the Housing Supply Shortage Act and the HIRE CREDIT Act, addressing systemic inequality head-on. Her viral exchange with Rep. Nancy Mace in 2025 further underscored her ability to speak truth to power in real time, igniting online discourse and reinforcing her position as a fearless advocate for accountability and equity.
For her unwavering leadership, legislative impact, and her strategic use of digital platforms to inspire political action and empower underserved communities, we are honored to present Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett with the 2025 Webby Advocate of the Year Award.
