The glow of victory emanating from the Democratic Party across our nation may well be short-lived if the agenda in the House of Representatives, come January, focuses more on punishing Trumpism than addressing the needs of all Americans.
The party would do well to listen to its centrist members in order to fix the remaining issues of the Affordable Care Act, fund infrastructure investment and negotiate immigration reform.
It is necessary for the health of our nation to work together toward our common ground and good. Our nation has experienced two years of rancor and division within Washington, and many of us are sick and tired of seeing it.
The far left and far right will always be loud, but for now why not work to mend our fractured ways of treating one another, use our voices to pursue united success, and take advantage of some of the good things we are enjoying to make us even greater?
As a wise Republican once said, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.”
