Don’t let contention drive the dinner table conversation this Thanksgiving!
Try listening to those with different opinions. You may realize you have more in common than a love for Grandma’s pumpkin pie! Thanks @GovofCO & @NatlGovsAssoc for joining us in showing America how we can #DisagreeBetter.

We’re taking the Utah Way to the national stage – the idea that we can find ways to come together and get things done. We must learn how to #DisagreeBetter. And that is exactly what we intend to do this year as chair of the National Governors Association. Let’s get to work.
