I completely missed it, but I suspect that Coons “feels very strongly” that there is “a lot of work to be done” with his “friends across the aisle” to “come together” in the interest of “bipartisanship” to “get things done” to “benefit all Americans” as “we were elected to do.” Otherwise, the discourse could be “dominated by extremists” because the overarching goal is to “break the gridlock in Congress” and that if he continues to “reach across the aisle” hard enough, to achieve a “bipartisan consensus” on “important issues facing the country” everything will be okay.
