"Why Gridlock Rules Washington + How WE Can Solve This Crisis?"
February 13 ❘ 5:30 p.m. ‐ 8:00 p.m. ❘ Turnbull Conference Center
A Republican + A Democrat? Sharing the stage? Forging a friendship? Disagreeing civilly?
We are pleased to welcome Former U.S. Congressmen David Jolly (R) and Patrick Murphy (D) — former political rivals and now partners — as they defy their differences to join forces and offer their candid take on partisan gridlock and what we can do about it.
Join this landmark city-wide event being convened by Power of WE under the auspices of the Office of the President and the Division of Student Affairs to explore how we can forge a bipartisan path in a partisan world. At a time when politics can seem toxic, come experience something that transcends the typical. Witness dynamic civil discourse in action, engage in some riveting roundtable conversations, and leave inspired to bridge our deepening divides.
Seating is limited and reservations are required. RSVP today at bridgedivides.eventbrite.com
