What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Kyrsten Sinema’s down-to-earth, funny, and insightful wit is a great match for her practical lessons. Unite and Conquer goes to the very heart of what progressive politics needs—a good dose of learning how to work with others, sprinkled with humor and grace, from a truly remarkable woman.”
—Celinda Lake, President, Lake Research Partners
“This book is a must-have for anyone interested in winning those campaigns that are supposed to be unwinnable.”
—Joe Solmonese, President, Human Rights Campaign
“As a member of the minority party in the Arizona legislature, Kyrsten Sinema has had to forge cross-ideological coalitions to further her objectives, and she’s become good at it. Unite and Conquer will equip policy advocates on both sides of the spectrum to break through partisan gridlock and effectuate meaningful change.”
—Clint Bolick, Director, Scharf-Norton Center for Constitutional Litigation, Goldwater Institute
