Same mission. Stronger name. Introducing The Brickyard (formerly +More Perfect Union). We're building a stronger nation, together.
Check out how we'll do this at https://t.co/iQmJXDUrOi and sign up for one of our events.
Our Executive Director @GarrettCathcart penned a letter to our members to remind us why +More Perfect Union exists: to turn down the temperature, to walk us back from the edge, and to remind America of the values we still share.

@DavidJUrban and I are on opposite sides of the political spectrum and we don’t agree on everything. But we both still do believe in the power of finding common ground.
Especially today, on the twenty-third anniversary of 9/11. This horrific tragedy took the lives of almost 3,000 Americans and changed the course of a generation. It was a moment of crisis that could have broken us as a nation. Instead, in the days and weeks that followed, Americans came together. Moments of crisis can define people.
Today we face another defining moment of crisis. Many say that we are more divided than we have ever been… that this divisiveness and hate cannot be stopped.
I say it's time that we all prove them wrong.
It was great to sit down for coffee together at the DNC to discuss our shared vision for the American dream — and how the left and the right can work together to build a country that works for all of us.
I encourage everyone to take the #CoffeeandCourage challenge by @MPU_us. While it may seem impossible to bridge the divisions within our country, it all starts with a simple conversation.
Up next, I challenge @ashleyrallison, @MrShermichael, @secupp to have a cup of coffee with someone from “the other side.”
Check out https://t.co/8Xa7duCa1C for more information on how to participate.
David, let’s do it again sometime soon 📷 #CoffeeandCourage #FindingCommonGrounds
I really enjoyed catching up with my friend @VanJones68 at the @DemConvention a few weeks ago. Despite having differing political opinions,
we took @MPU_us's #CoffeeandCourage challenge to talk about why our country is great, the things we have in common, and what we can learn from each other. Together, we can bridge divides and foster understanding, one conversation at a time. In that spirit, I challenge my friends @BhanSeema, @KBeds, and @jim_schultz to have a cup of coffee with someone who they may not always agree with!
