Today, I’m excited to announce the Finding Common Ground Project. Our mission is to gather and display at least a thousand answers to this question before Election Day:

'What is a political issue that you could find common ground on and why?'

-

I created this project out of frustration with how much of American politics is focused on division rather than on finding constructive solutions.

-

Now, I’m not naive as to why this happens, and I do want to note that disagreement is both necessary and welcome in a functioning democracy.

-

However, I also believe that finding common ground is necessary for a functioning democracy.

-

Finding common ground is something worth fighting for.

-

I’ll be updating this page daily until Election Day with your answers, which you can send via email to findingcommonground24@gmail.com or by tagging our X (@commongrnd24) and Substack (findingcommonground24) accounts.

-

If you want to learn more about the many sides of issues before contributing, Pew Research Center’s resources are a great place to start, and I truly hope you’ll contribute.

-

A single response may not seem like much, but it’s how real political progress happens: one step at a time, over and over again, until our words become the foundation of a necessary common ground.

I started this project out of frustration with how much of American politics focuses on division rather than constructive solutions.

While I understand the reasons behind this, and I recognize that disagreement is essential in a democracy, I believe that finding common ground is every bit as important.

Finding common ground is something worth fighting for, and that’s exactly what this project is about.

I’ll be updating this page daily with your answers until Election Day. You can contribute by sending your response via email to findingcommonground24@gmail.com or by tagging our X (@commongrnd24) and Substack (Finding Common Ground) accounts.

If you want to learn more about the many sides of issues before contributing, Pew Research Center’s resources are a great place to start. I sincerely hope you’ll contribute.

A single response may not seem like much, but it’s how real political progress happens—one step at a time, until our words become the foundation of necessary common ground.

Thank you, and let’s get to work!
