Working across the aisle is not inherently a problem

This is spot on.
Working across the aisle is not inherently a problem. The problem is when you make compromises that hurt the people you are supposed to represent. Too often, that is what happens when our elected officials talk about “bipartisan solutions.” What they really mean is “we sold you out to protect corporate interests.” Chris Coons has taken nearly half a million dollars from the pharmaceutical industry so far this election, and he is currently sponsoring a *bipartisan* bill that would strengthen pharmaceutical company monopolies and keep drug prices high. I don’t agree with that. I think our Senators should work for US, not the pharmaceutical companies. That's why I'm refusing all corporate pac, pharma executive, and lobbyist money. - Jessica Scarene 
Coons tries to frame his *bipartisanship* as "good government" when it actually only good for his corporate constituents.  Coons style bipartisanship has nothing to do with good government and everything to do with wrapping up corporate welfare in the flag and demanding everyone salute.   If you agree, donate here: https://bit.ly/2KtSprw
