WTH Can Pro-Life and Pro-Choice Americans Agree On? A Lot, Say Alyssa Rosenberg and Marc Thiessen

In a post-Dobbs political landscape, abortion policy has become
the great divider. But disagreements over abortion cannot stifle
much-needed conversations about what can be done to support
American women, mothers, fathers, and children. To nobody’s
surprise, WTH co-host Marc is a conservative. His colleague at
the Washington Post Alyssa Rosenberg, is liberal. Together, they
undertook the critical task that one might expect from our
lawmakers, and put their differences aside to write a productive,
respectful, and intelligent guideline for family policies that
have been proposed by lawmakers, yet to be passed. They selected
policies that did not require them to compromise on their
respective positions on abortion, and those that have a serious
chance of becoming law if the work is done by Congress. It is a
model of good-faith hard work, and the kind that is rare among
those who actually make policy – we commend you to read it here.


Alyssa Rosenberg writes about mass culture, parenting, and gender
for The Washington Post's Opinions section. Before coming to The
Post in 2014, Alyssa was the culture editor at ThinkProgress, the
television columnist at Women and Hollywood, a columnist for the
XX Factor at Slate and a correspondent for The Atlantic.com.


Marc Thiessen writes a column for The Post on foreign and
domestic policy. He is a fellow at the American Enterprise
Institute, and the former chief speechwriter for President George
W. Bush. He is a Fox News contributor.
