We are routinely ranked among the most livable, healthiest and safest states in the nation. We’ve been named the best state in the nation to raise a child four years in a row.”

‎”Finally, I’d like to talk about how we deal with each other, and the people we serve.

There’s a harshness in the air, in the tone and nature of our communication, and particularly within this building, that’s not healthy for our people or our democracy. We can disagree, without demonizing one another.

Vigorous debate is important, but our citizens expect us to behave with dignity and respect. They expect us to look for common ground and common purpose. We can find inspiration and models to follow in our people, who show us every day how to come together.”
