To be sure, narrowly split control of Congress adds to the complexity of addressing these challenges. But even in this situation, the 118th Congress can still create opportunities for bipartisan action to bolster American economic security, national security, and health. There are many national goals on which the parties agree. These include:
- Stronger American science and innovation
- Reliable, cleaner domestic energy
- An American society that’s safe from threat of pandemics
- Resilient, productive American agriculture
Even if there are some areas in which policy differences persist, there are many where action is possible.
To help seed the ground for bipartisan progress, we have assembled a wide-ranging menu of policy ideas on a range of critical topics.
