Many times a Governors message to the legislature can be dull and mundane. However, this was not the situation Wednesday evening as the Governor met with state leaders to express his thoughts and desires for the upcoming session and year. Caution, action and protection were certainly the underlying themes to the Governors State of the State address yeaterday evening.
Caution, resounded clearly as the Governor spoke of the economic challenges ahead. A call to action was given to legislators to move forward in removing drug dealers from our state and finally, protection seemed to bring an emotional discharge from the Governor as he spoke of his desire to protect our young children from predators.
In addition to the above, numerous issues were also discussed and like all past and present Governors many of the details were absent from address. Including how the Governor plans to have students in the classroom for 180 days...no mater what the weather may hold for them.
Like many will say, "the details are in the pudding."
