We all know this is a difficult and emotional issue, but we are committed to find a resolution. |
We know the changing demographics we need to address in this state, |
We must support the industry that drives our state's economy. That means being very attentive to the needs of our farmers and ranchers. It means aggressively exploring opportunities in the areas of biotechnology, value-added agriculture, and foreign markets. |
When it comes to educating our children, bigger is not better. I don't think we need an Omaha takeover of the suburban school districts. |
You can expect to find these four priorities - education, economic vitality, efficiency in government and the protection of families - woven into my decisions as Governor. They will serve as my compass as I work with you to chart a future course for our state. |
