87% of Americans think polarization is a threat to our country, and 59% are dissatisfied with our current political climate. H.B. 6843, the Building Civic Bridges Act introduced by @RepDerekKilmer, prioritizes building civic bridges for our future #ListenFirst

There is no such thing as being “pro-life” while supporting laws that let children be shot in their schools, elders in grocery stores, worshippers in their houses of faith, survivors by abusers, or anyone in a crowded place.
It is an idolatry of violence. And it must end.

Conversations across the partisan divide have never been more difficult—or more urgent. Download our free guide and begin the hard work of repairing this democracy. whatisessential.org/red-blue
Political divides so entrenched they touch every aspect of our lives: "A new poll shows a 25-point margin between those who identify as Republican and Democrat who are fully or partially vaccinated."

Like the #LehighValley, many other places in America suffer from deep polarization. Local newspapers want to help turn the tide by focusing on local news @DesertSunNews journalistsresource.org/medi…

It is difficult for people empathize with one another past a certain point. It's especially difficult when our disagreements are not merely academic but threaten to have consequences in the world.
Master understanding anyway. There is difficulty. But there is no down side.
