Some might even say very cutesy (everyone knows young legislators from across the political spectrum talking policy is the cutest look for your country). All jokes aside, we continue to be inspired by the work Future Caucus (formerly Millennial Action Project) is doing around the country every day!

The teamwork of rivals like Steph Curry and LeBron in Team USA is a powerful reminder that working together can achieve greatness. If our leaders (and every American) took a page from their playbook, we'd undoubtedly tackle challenges and celebrate triumphs together. 🇺🇸🏀

"Recent political cycles, the ones we remember most, are ones of name-calling, talking over one another, and assuming things of your opponent. With practice, we hope to call ourselves more understanding and empathetic people at the end of each meeting." -Bridge UW–Madison member

It's crucial for all of us to ensure the safety of those who make our elections possible. While opinions on politics may differ, protecting election workers from threats is a shared responsibility. Both Democrats and Republicans benefit when their voters can safely partake in

We are all about the idea we can #disagreebetter while we play, and green spaces are a fantastic resource! When we get out of our ideological bubbles and action experience our fellow Americans as humans, democracy benefits.

Hear us out...maybe not the best way to do things. Too many Americans have lost friends and family because of thinking like this and 87% of Americans are tired of political division. So let's do something about it. What's one group or program bringing people together?

Love this! We work with over 500+ orgs committed to this mission. One Small Step - TakeOneSmallStep.org has been inspiring us lately for their work to bring together Americans with different views — not to debate politics — but simply to get to know each other as people. What's inspiring you?

This is something we see all the time! It takes bravery to expose yourself to other Americans who disagree with you. However, we often find a lot of agreement (and people on the "other side" don't fit the stereotype of what you may think). Thats one reason we love

Civic Health Project I personally really like what I'm seeing about One Small Step - TakeOneSmallStep.org as well. I know many passionate conservatives and passionate liberals and it's an honor to get to call them my friends & family members. That's personally helped me keep myself in check on caricaturing the "other".

Storytellers can use these values from Bridge Entertainment Labs to create interesting stories that also bring us together. What movie or television show have you seen that exposed you to perspective different than your own? We loved the friendship between Leslie Knope and Ron Swanson!

Rival stands selling Trump and Kamala merch have set up next to each other at a busy intersection in Tustin, CA but the interactions may not be what you expect. Steve and Sandra have become friends and are taking the time to actually listen and get to know each other. In between,

Presidential debates used to feel a lot different. While candidates always passionately argued their points and deeply held beliefs, there were more civil moments between them. Check out these clips from the Romney vs. Obama and Bush vs. Gore debates from Starts With Us

It's a powerful moment of democracy when we can see the energy and passion of Americans across the political spectrum gathered together.

The day after a fiery debate, Vice President Kamala Harris Kamala Harris and @realdonaldtrump showed up to honor those killed on 9/11. Our national politics can return to this kind of civility if we work for it.
