Wheatley Fellow Judge Griffiths spoke at an interfaith event in Salt Lake City promoting bipartisan understanding and respect.
Griffiths urged Utah residents, especially those in Utah's thriving religious communities, to come together in improving "the contemptuous way in which politicians speak about others, and how we speak about other people.”
"This is a time where people with faith are needed, perhaps more than ever, to address this issue," Griffiths argues.
Utah Governor Spencer Cox urged Utah residents to "give hope to the rest of the nation and the world."
