OKLAHOMA CITY – Gov. Kevin Stitt is urging Oklahomans to “disagree better” when they’re discussing controversial political topics or their differing faiths.
At an event derived from the Disagree Better initiative started by the National Governors Association, the Republican governor pushed Oklahomans to engage in civil discourse in political discussions.
Stitt serves as the vice chair of the NGA and spoke on two panels at Wednesday’s event at the Oklahoma City Memorial and Museum in tandem with its Better Conversations initiative, which offers tools for Oklahomans to engage in conversations on sensitive or controversial topics.
The national Disagree Better initiative , launched by former NGA chair Utah Gov. Spencer Cox in 2022, has a goal of helping Americans work through differences when it comes to hot button issues in the United States
