Glen & April invite Ryan Norris back for a repeat interview. As Director of Americans for Prosperity Arkansas, Ryan has been in charge of an organization that nationally has been associated with strongly Red views, yet he has persistently advocated and acted in accordance with values of civility and maintaining relationships across the political divide. In the first part of this second interview, Ryan provides insight into the importance he attaches to including people of various views in negotiations, as long as they maintain a respectful approach. He even advocates hearing from those with extreme views of either ideological slant, with the caveat that they remain civil in their approach. He provides details on some of the work his group has done with Arkansans in relation to bills considered in the 2023 legislative session.
