Oh Arnold
California is truly one fantastic state. Hollywood, earthquakes, Jack on the sidelines at Laker games - you name it. The best part about California? Democracy.
You may recall the California election a few moons ago where Gary Coleman battled pretty much everyone in the contest for Governor. In the end Arnold Schwarzenegger won and became forever known as the “Governator”.
It is election time once again in California. Check out the latest proclaimation from Arnold to try and win over state workers after trying to cut back their pensions. Nice work.
PROCLAMATION
Managing the affairs of the eighth-largest economy in the world is no small task.
Without the dedicated team of men and women who work for California, our state’s
progress and prosperity would come to a grinding halt.
Few organizations in the world call upon such a fantastic array of talents to ensure
that its goals are met. In California, we rely on state workers who represent almost
every field imaginable: law enforcement, medicine, information technology, food
services, administrative support, law, engineering, education, science, maintenance,
aviation and architecture, just to name a few. Each serves in a different capacity,
but all serve the common good of our Golden State.
Today is a special day set aside to honor the tremendous accomplishments of each
and every one of our more than 215,000 state workers. No matter the
responsibility, they are an integral part of what makes our state the successful and
enjoyable place it is to live, work and play. I extend my gratitude for their
contributions towards making California the greatest state in the greatest nation in
the world.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER, Governor of the
State of California, do hereby proclaim October 4, 2006, as “Thank You State
Workers Day.”
IN WITNESS WHEREOF I have here unto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of California to be affixed this 3rd day of October 2006.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
GOVERNOR OF CALIFORNIA
