“Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.”
In a moment of national turmoil, we find ourselves looking for courageous leaders who will both stand up and speak about the challenges we face, and sit down and listen to the evidence in front of them.
Last week, Utah Sen. Mitt Romney exemplified this leadership as he took a step away from the partisan battle lines in D.C. and spoke up against a Republican president who made a “brazen and unprecedented appeal” to foreign governments to interfere in our elections.
