Public Agenda’s Hidden Common Ground Initiative is a multi-year research project created to challenge the narrative that Americans are hopelessly divided and incapable of working together to create fair and effective solutions to today’s challenges.
The initiative explores cross-partisan common ground, by asking Americans across the country about their views on topical issues, as well as what they see as solutions to overcoming partisan animosity.
