I think first and foremost, you have to be willing to talk with them. So, you know, one of the policies I advocate for was paid family leave. we left and 9 million more Americans had it through a combination of securing it for our federal workforce. I had people in the White House who were pregnant who didn't have access to paid leave.
So we want to keep people attached to the workforce, yet when they have an important life event like a child, we create an impossibility for that. Some people don't even have access to unpaid leave if they're part-time workers and So that and then we also put in place the first ever national tax credit for workers making under $72,000 a year where employers could then offer it to their workers.

That was also part of tax cuts. So, you know, part of it is really taking the arguments as to why this is good, smart, well-designed policy to people. And, you know, it was one of my big surprises that on certain policy issues that I thought would have been well socialized, the policies that existed were never shared across the aisle.

So people just lived with them, maybe in hopes that one day they would have peace. votes to get exactly what they want. But I was surprised by how little discussion there was. So I think part of it is be willing to have those tough discussions with people who may not share your viewpoint and be an active listener when they point out flaws.

And they have suggestions for changes, not believing that you have a monopoly on good ideas. And I think there has to be a lot of humility in architecting these things. And a policy should benefit from that type of well-rounded input.

It requires trust too. Like I learned tax cuts was really interesting for me because I met with so many people across the political spectrum on advancing that policy. I really figured out who was willing to deviate from their talking points when the door was closed and who wasn't.

And it takes some courage to do that, especially without surety that it would actually get done, especially if they've campaigned on something that was slightly different. And not everyone has that courage. So through tax cuts, I learned the people who did have that courage, and I went back to that well time and time again on policies that I thought were important. You know, some were bipartisan.

The Great American Outdoors Act is something, it's incredible policy.
