Fix US - Arizona

I wanted to make sure you knew about the exclusive Zoom event with other FixUS members happening tomorrow about our new report "Why is Governing No Longer Good Politics? Reflections from a Thousand Years of Public Service".

The report contains testimonials from officials of both parties who served in American government throughout the past half-century and covers topics like structural incentives in the electoral system, the toxic media environment, and the shifting roles and responsibilities of public servants. If you haven’t already seen the report, I encourage you to do so. I’m sure that, like me, you will find its contents to be very insightful.
