The Senate proceeded in a body to the Assembly Chamber to meet in Joint Convention to receive the State of the State Message.
The President of the Senate in the Chair.
The committee to await upon the Governor appeared with his excellency the Governor, who delivered his message as follows:
Speaker Prosser, President Rude, Members of the Legislature; Constitutional Officers, honorable justices of the Supreme Court, tribal chairmen, members of the Cabinet, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen.
I am proud to come before you tonight to talk about the accomplishments we have made together as a state and about the bold future we are building together.
Ladies and Gentlemen, the state of the state is exceptional.
As I travel across Wisconsin and talk with thousands of people, I am inspired by their abiding belief in an even better future.
I see hope in the eyes of children at Bruce Guadalupe school in Milwaukee's inner city.
I see confidence in the small entrepreneur who's just invested her life savings in a new venture, knowing she will succeed.
I see a sense of security in our mothers and fathers, who have chosen to raise their children in a state where values, character and hard work matter.
And there is reason for the hope that lies within us.
We have built a sense of confidence in the future. For we have proven as a state that if we work hard enough, if we make sacrifices, and if we believe in ourselves -- we can do anything.
We are breaking records that were thought to be unbreakable surpassing milestones thought unattainable. Consider the following:
Welfare caseloads are down 33 percent -- their lowest level in two decades...The American Dream is now within reach of 33,000 more families ...And tonight, we're on the brink of ending welfare altogether.
