The unlikely personal friendship between political opposites Jared Solomon and Jesse Topper

State Rep. Jared Solomon, D-Phila., and Minority Leader Jesse Topper, R-Bedford, recently appeared together on the Liz’s Coffee Connection podcast to discuss their unlikely personal friendship in the PA House in these deeply divided political times.

The two disagree on nearly every ideological issue and represent one of the deepest red and deepest blue districts in the state, but they have spent time visiting each other’s districts and meeting each other’s constituents at churches, synagogues, and on the basketball court.

On the podcast, Solomon and Topper explain how they have built personal bridges across partisan lines and share strategies for fostering civil dialogue in politically divided times.
