The Art of Disagreeing

As the nation charges toward the 2024 election, this Engage at the Bush Center event presented by NexPoint will show citizens how passionate and civil discourse is not only possible, but necessary – as long as it’s built atop a foundation of respect and understanding.

Join us on Jan. 22 at 6:30 p.m. as Utah Governor Spencer Cox, a Republican, and Kansas Governor Laura Kelly, a Democrat, advance the lively and highly entertaining conversation Governor Cox recently began on the importance of “disagreeing better.”
