Craig: I think one of the things I learned when I worked for Governor Mitt Romney was
when I was in his Office of State Relations, a building in Washington, DC, called the
Hall of the States. The Hall of the States represents essentially all 50 governors with the
National Governors Association, so you have an opportunity to work with folks from all
across the country, both Republicans and Democrats, on issues that are important to two
governors. Additionally, Governor Romney was a Republican in a state where all the
federal offices, the senators, and folks in Congress were Democrats. We had to learn
how do we be bipartisan and work on issues that directly impact Massachusetts together,
and I think that an approach we take at the American Chemistry Council is having
bipartisan solutions.
We all want to end plastic waste. We all want to see lower greenhouse gas emissions.
We all want to see using less energy and conserving water, but sometimes we don't
always agree with others. There are different material groups; there's paper, aluminum,
and glass, and oftentimes, these materials compete in the marketplace, but we approach it
honestly and agree on issues where we can and agree to disagree when we can. I think
we approach every issue with that degree of how can we find some areas to agree on, and
I think that's an important part of the success here in Washington.
