Ode to Moderation

Today’s the day.  If you haven’t voted already, I’m hoping you will take the time today to do so. It matters, perhaps this year more than ever. I want to flag again our opposition to the childcare ballot amendment in Saint Paul. Beyond that, we are encouraging reasonableness in both our advocacy and our response to the election. Consider this Wall Street Journal article from 2016 on How to Get Beyond our Tribal Politics.  Though it was in reference to the 2016 election, the concept applies today: my thoughts can be described as an “ode to moderation,” encouragement to support pragmatic governing moving forward. It is our job to wrestle on issues that matter to us, while always respecting the process.

See you in the trenches,
