Back to all

(Denver, CO) – March 23, 2022 – The Attorney General Alliance and its Chair, Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser, in partnership with former Colorado Secretary of State Wayne Williams and cross-partisan nonprofit organizations Unify America and America Talks, announced today the launch of The Colorado Unify Challenge, which brings together Coloradans from every corner of the state to talk about issues that affect Colorado.
Designed as an innovative way to deal with increased divisions and to show the rest of the country how Colorado turns political fighting into problem-solving, the Colorado Unify Challenge is a live, one-on-one online conversation (like Zoom) with another Coloradan who may live across the state and have a different outlook on issues.
“Many of us are concerned about how divided we’ve become, not only because it is harmful to the fabric of our communities, but because it keeps us from solving problems,” said Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser. “The Colorado Unify Challenge is designed to engage Coloradans in authentic, meaningful, conversations about some of our state’s biggest challenges. Ultimately, our love for Colorado unites us.”

Akron's Civic Assembly just unveiled The Plan of the People: nine resident-built proposals to solve the city's housing crisis.
Democracy, reimagined. 65 random Akronites are solving housing together... no fighting, just shared goals. This is deliberative democracy.
A student arrived at the Unify Challenge nervous and over-prepared — and left with something she never expected: genuine connection.
