And that will send a message that we do not accept the chaos and the cruelty and the corruption of this administration.

I wrote this book because I think our politics are not meeting the moment or the needs of the people that a whole bunch of politicians represent.

What do I mean by that?

I travel across this commonwealth and more and more across the country, and I just see goodness.

I see people who are bringing light in their communities every single day, solving problems.

I write about a number of the people in this book.

And I wrote this book, which of course was interrupted in many ways by the arson attack, where we saw not only extreme darkness, but extraordinary light.

Yeah.

And I wrote this book to speak to that.

And I think it is important, I hope people will read this, to recognize that our politicians need to do a better job of listening to the people and learning from the great example that the people set in their communities every day.

As for the future, you talk about the heart and soul of the Democratic Party and what's that going to look like.

I want to have a voice in shaping that.

I want to have a voice in shaping that as governor of Pennsylvania.

I'm grateful for the chance to talk to someone like you about that.

But I don't think anyone can look past the immediate term here.

This year, all of the challenges I have as governor of Pennsylvania and other leaders have in their jurisdictions, but most importantly, these midterm elections.

And that's all I'm going to focus on.

That's all I think anyone should be focused on.

Good to be with you.

Thank you.
