Notes from the Capitol
March 2, 2007
Dear Friends,
Two months ago today, I had the great privilege of taking the oath of office
to protect and defend Florida. The last 60 days have been both challenging
and rewarding. Looking forward, I am optimistic about the great things we
can achieve for the people of Florida in the 2007 Legislative Session.
Tuesday, March 6, 2007, I will deliver the State of the State Address at 11
a.m. in the chamber of the Florida House of Representatives. Floridians can
view the address live on the Florida Channel or by Web cast at
www.myflorida.com or www.flgov.com. I encourage you to listen and learn more
about my vision for Florida's future and making the Sunshine State a better
place to live, work and raise a family.
We live in a great and diverse state. Just this week, we marked the
conclusion of Black History Month. From the commemorative event in
Pensacola honoring Reverend H.K. Matthews and others who worked to
desegregate Northwest Florida, to the beautiful artwork by Eluster
Richardson displayed in my office, I gained an even greater appreciation for
the struggles as well as the contributions of African-Americans. These great
Americans helped build our state and our country.
As we honor the determination of those who stood against injustice, we
should recognize their contributions not only during Black History Month,
but also throughout the entire year. We draw strength from the brave men and
women who inspire and motivate us to do better.
I am hopeful that during the upcoming legislative session we will increase
the safety of Floridians, provide tax cuts for businesses and families and
increase teacher pay. We will work to decrease the burden of property taxes
and strengthen Florida's vibrant economy, natural resources, schools and
universities.
I am grateful for the leadership of House Speaker Marco Rubio and Senate
President Ken Pruitt. Together with we will work to improve the quality of
life for the people of our state. I am looking forward to the exchange of
ideas. This is the time to plot new courses, embrace new possibilities and
implement new solutions. We are poised to do great things for the state of
Florida and her citizens.
May God continue to bless the great state of Florida,
Charlie
