If there was a vaccine against extremism... would you invest?
As we close out the year, it’s impossible to ignore the symptoms all around us: rising polarization, shrinking trust, and a political culture that feels more reactive than resilient. But at Majority in the MORE: conta.cc/499Lxu1
Happy New Year, early risers!
(Yes it's basic and bare bones. And, this isn't a specific Majority in the Middle initiative. I'm just raising my hand to host the list.)
Decisions are made by the people who show up. AND if you didn't go to a caucus last night, it's not too late to participate. I wrote this in May of 2024, and it's still true.

Two excellent things I just observed in #mnleg House Ag committee -- First, the hearing is being co-chaired by
@reprickhansen.bsky.social and Rep. Paul Anderson. (I'm watching online so I can't get a shot of them sitting side-by-side; the official video only points to one person at a time.)
Second, before committee started
@andysmithmn.bsky.social walked over and individually greeted and shook hands with all of the members on the "other side of the aisle." Great way to start the year, Representative!
So I put together this jotform: form.jotform.com/Shannon_Wats...
If you want to be a part of the work moving forward -- put your name on this list so we have a way to distribute information and coordinate, as "next steps" become respectful and appropriate.
