Politics we can be proud of

Why We Should Care About Bipartisanship
Bipartisanship is difficult, messy, and subjective. It is also essential.
We believe that political division in the United States is the overarching problem of our time. If you care about cost of living, mental health, immigration, democracy, climate change, school funding, you should care about political division that can slow or even block solutions that address these issues.
Big topics of justice and freedom and liberty and safety – that we all need to tackle – are off the table if we don’t reverse this trend.
Issues don’t get solved when we’re divided. Instead, power and public policy swings back and forth on a pendulum, from one extreme to another.
Divisiveness means that issues that didn't used to be controversial are now partisan. Our culture and political system need to incentivize and reward collaboration if we are going to make progress on challenging problems.
