Forum offered online and in the Hinckley Institute caucus room - Room 2018, Gardner Commons.

Join us for a conversation between Utah Congressman Blake Moore (R) and California Congressman Jimmy Panetta (D). Both congressmen have chosen to participate in the American Congressional Exchange (ACE), a program that emphasizes the importance of personal interaction outside of the negotiating rooms of the Capitol. ACE is focused on members of the U.S. House of Representatives and is built upon three precepts:

  1. To develop trust, Members of Congress must listen to one another to understand what it is that motivates them and concerns them.
  2. Once they listen to each other, they often learn they actually have more in common than meets the eye – and if they can see each other in that vein, impactful legislation can be achieved.
  3. A shared experience based on close personal interaction can be what brings Members of Congress together to take action on behalf of the American people.

Pizza will be distributed to attendees at the beginning of the event. Please plan to arrive at the venue promptly.

The Hinckley Institute neither supports nor opposes the views expressed in this forum.
