Utahs reform started in the 90s. I happened to be governor at the time. Frankly we held together a collaborative process that lasted eight years where we put together a collaborative process to every year put forward toward what we called our health print moving toward a more integrated system. You have two very different cultures in terms of regulation but both move them forward and frankly long before the federal government did. Making the point here that different states with different fiphilosophies can move a state forward toward integration in their own unique way in a fashion that frankly the federal government has not yet been able to achieve. Yes, please. I would add our experience in colorado is interesting as well and so probably falls somewhere between massachusetts and utah sort of spectrum of regulation but its another place where you see things happening in a bipartisan fashion. Before i was governor, a republican governor, governor owens formed a commission that led to ....
The real challenge is how do you balance this environment and not lose that edge or lose that equipment. And the air force mission is very unique. Within 72 hours the Air National Guard unit can deploy and they have to be ready to deploy. This is my good friend here from the interNational Guard. We have these tankers on alert right now that if something happens over the United States there are pilots and jets. And that mission of the air force is unique. It takes more get up and going.

We talked about the fact that you were born in israel, 61 years ago, how about these two gentlemen when you look at here, mr. Peres and mr. Shamir, were they born in israel . No, they were not born in israel. What country did they come from from . Both of them are born in poland. What about some of the other people we know . He was born in israel. Golda mayor was born here, wasnt she . She was born in russia and came here. Does it matter at all . Yourave been there all of life, does it matter to you or others if you came from another country, whether or not you can be a part of the no. We live in a democracy and everyone might be elected.

Your entertainment last night. I want to call to order the meeting of the health and Human Services committee. By saying we have a few administrative items to take care of. The governors should have received briefing books in advance including the agenda and nga updates. Sitting next to me is melinda becker, legislative director for health and Human Services for nga, and she will be available after the services if anyone needs further details about what we are talking about. A reminder that the proceedings for this committee are open to the press, and all meeting attendees, i would ask you to silence your cell phones and electronic devices. The discussion will focus on two issues every governor spent a lot of time picking about and working on, first given the democratic demographic changes, rising cost of health care, and other factors, how can we expect the u. S. Health syst ....
Prayer. Almighty god, our father in heaven, grace this capitol centerpiece of our nation, as we bestow the congressional gold medal upon the great hero, Raoul Wallenberg. Forgetesolved, never to 6 million of our sacred brothers and sisters, over one million children, killed in the senseless slaughter during the holocaust by the not see butchers. As we pray for the survivors who need your support in the twilight of their days, let us resolve never to forget Raoul Wallenberg, a great light in the darkness. You, almighty god, command us to cherish and preserve all live. Raoul wallenberg did this at the risk of his own, and 100,000 people, those he saved, and their descendents, live and breathe, and work to make your hisd better as result of ultimate sacrifice. Words of those, those engraved on the metal, he lived on through all those he saved. Through this special and histor ....
