Ronald Reagan once said that “the person who agrees with you 80 percent of the time is a friend and an ally — not a 20 percent traitor.” The conservative movement would do well to remember this if they wish to expand their tent, especially to Millennials and Generation Z, who, like it or not, are vital to the GOP’s longevity as a major party.

Most often, traditional conservatives would rather demonize and attack other sects of the party than embrace their common ground and work together where they can. This is something my organization, the American Conservation Coalition, knows all too well. As a young organization founded and led by a millennial team, ACC works to promote limited government and market-driven environmental policies. We discuss topics such as conservation, clean energy, and climate from a conservative lens — all issues that have been dominated and made extreme by the Left for far too long.
