Our allies step up to bring together Congress and Country |
|
Progress comes when committed leaders of both sides work together even if they disagree. Compromise is a means to move forward together. Last month, we once again had a sadly-too-familiar episode of senseless gun violence. For many Americans, it was accompanied by a sense of resignation – that once again, elected officials would do nothing. But this time, our allies on Capitol Hill are taking action. Many of the same senators who crafted the bipartisan infrastructure agreement have been meeting to work out legislation on guns that can actually get 60 votes. And House Problem Solvers are working with them, understanding that it makes no sense for the House to pass a bill that won’t get anywhere in the upper chamber. Only time will tell if now, things will truly be different. But our allies have already made more progress. The toughest problems and the most complex issues are those that most urgently call for two-party solutions – and in order to ensure lasting change, we’re doing the work to make them happen. Please sign on to show our allies that you support their hard work on gun policy – and that you appreciate their bravery in working in unity across chambers and across party lines. |
