While partisan conflicts all too often dominate the media’s attention, the Bipartisan Policy Center (BPC) is committed to fostering a constructive dialogue with a focus on ideas rather than political posturing. BPC’s Bridge-Builder Breakfasts highlight the institutions and individuals who are crossing party lines to develop solutions to the critical challenges facing the country. The ongoing series examines leading perspectives on issues ranging from energy security and childhood nutrition to transportation spending and tax reform.
Each Bridge-Builder Breakfast features a moderated panel discussion with current and former lawmakers, industry leaders, issue advocates, and members of diverse coalitions. The breakfasts provide a fresh perspective on opportunities for bipartisan cooperation in Washington, DC and real-world insights into forging consensus among differing views.
