Senator Jeff Bridges on Bringing People Together Around Shared Values

 

Recorded at NewDEAL’s 12th Annual Leaders Conference in Washington, this week’s episode features a conversation between host Ryan Coonerty and NewDEAL Leader Colorado Senator Jeff Bridges. They discuss how he is the only state senator with a Master of Divinity, which has given him a unique perspective on campaigns, the role of elected officials, and the future of democracy. Senator Bridges discusses, the importance of engaging meaningfully with the people whose votes you seek to earn, and why bipartisanship is still critical if we want to fight extremism. Tune in to our last episode of 2022 for an engaging conversation that touches on Senator Bridges priorities for the upcoming legislative session and his insights on “winning with the truth,” as he so eloquently puts it. See you next year, and happy holidays.
