We are honored to announce our partnership with The Carter Center on the "Candidate Principles for Trusted Elections Initiative." Which is a bipartisan effort to encourage candidates, political parties, and voters to uphold five core doctrines of democratic elections: integrity, nonviolence, security, oversight, and the peaceful transfer of power. Among the first to sign on to these principles are the three candidates for Georgia Secretary of State: current office holder Brad Raffensperger, a Republican, and his two opponents, Democratic State Rep. Bee Nguyen, and Ted Metz, a Libertarian. Read more about the pledge in our press release here https://lnkd.in/gzUC8K4p and sign and share it on the official page: https://lnkd.in/gU5tCCn5 Proudly with Gerald R. Ford Presidential Foundation.

We can't wait for this event tomorrow! Tired of the rancor? Join State Business Executives & Business for America on July 9th to hear two senators from opposing parties focus on what is possible. In a year when toxic polarization receives top billing, U.S. Senators Peter Welch (D-VT) and Doc Marshall (R-KS) will discuss how the issues of business, employees, and voters can be addressed through bipartisan partnership — even in these challenging times. https://lnkd.in/gZKmWGuf Postindustrial Media Civic Alliance Civic Health Project

If you haven't already checked out the National Governors Association and PBS Books presentation of Gov. Spencer Cox and Gov. Wes Moore speaking more on the importance of learning to #DisagreeBetter we highlight recommend you take a few moments to hear what they both have to say. Afterall, what better way is there to start off #CivicLearningWeek than to actively engage with civic process and discussion that is happening right now?! Delighted to be watching this for a second time with Kenneth Powley Chris Newlon of #TeamDemocracy! iCivics Postindustrial Media Future Caucus (formerly Millennial Action Project) Bridge Alliance
Don't miss out on watching this video! Governor Spencer Cox (R-Utah) and Governor Wes Moore (D-Maryland) recently appeared before the Economic Club of Washington DC to discuss the #DisagreeBetter campaign. The conversation is moderated by Judy Woodruff, senior correspondent and former anchor and managing editor of the PBS NewsHour.

It's hard not to be a fan of an organization like AllSides that works to deliver truly unbiased information. It's also much easier to #DisagreeBetter with information we can trust! We're big fans of the incredible organizations that make having a discussion easier by providing fact driven news! A special call out to Mormon Women for Ethical Government and they work they do in this area as well! Thanks for sharing Civic Health Project! Bridge Alliance, Listen First Project, National Governors Association!
When we are more informed, it is easier to #DisagreeBetter. AllSides takes that challenge and makes it accessible by providing balanced news from the Left, Center and Right all in one place.
