Reduce partisanship

It feels like ideas and possible solutions are judged immediately, not on the merits of the idea but on who put it forward - democrat or republican. I wish we could stop the knee jerk reaction and spend the time to consider the idea regardless of who proposes it. We might find that we agree on more things than we think.

The Nebraska Legislature is run without party affiliations, in the official sense anyway. The legislators are still somewhat aligned red or blue, but the general word is that the atmosphere in that legislature is more civil than in other states. Coalitions form around specific issues, not solely around party lines. New Hampshire can probably look over there for some inspiration...

Hi, I agree and you should check out Braver Angels. They have a NH Alliance and it is meant to bring people together from different partisan backgrounds. There are also efforts from some representatives to work on a bipartisan basis.
