'A dialogue we sorely need' say Shapiro and Cox at the National Cathedral

Intense polarization and the alarming rise of partisan political violence has left many Americans wondering about the nation's trajectory.

That's why Gov. Josh Shapiro and Utah Gov. Spencer Cox joined journalist Savannah Guthrie for a discussion on the topic at the National Cathedral in Washington D.C. Tuesday evening.

Cox said the two made each other's acquaintance within the National Governors Association. He found support from Shapiro in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination in Utah. The Pennsylvania governor, the victim of arson and an assassination attempt in April, has been thrust into expertise on the subject of political violence. He gave Cox the same advice he's frequently called upon national leaders to adopt, to act with "moral clarity."
