“My co-moderator is Paul Vogelheim, past chair of the Teton County Commission. Paul is a
Republican. I am a Democrat. Our speakers are a Republican and a Democrat. The local planning
and host committee members are Republicans and Democrats.
We invite you to join us not as Republicans or Democrats, but as Americans. This event is being live-
streamed to a national audience. Let’s show them that here in Teton County we can have a
bipartisan, civil and respectful conversation on a timely and difficult issue. We can come together to
discuss our nation’s foundational principles, even if we differ on other issues.”
