Georgetown Bipartisan Coalition is a student-run organization of Georgetown University dedicated to promoting healthy and respectful political discourse on campus and throughout the city of D.C. For too long our country's political system has been plagued by gridlock and a fundamental lack of respect for one's political opponents. We strongly believe in the power of communication and debate, and we hope to foster a spirit of mutual-cooperation across the aisle.GBC will host a variety of events throughout the year to bring people of diverse political backgrounds together to discuss policy issues and advocate for student-designed, bipartisan policy ideas. Through these events, we hope to bring together the Georgetown and DC community to try to end the wave of increasing polarization in our political system and to create a mutual respect for one another.
