Governor’s Weekly Message: Finding Common Ground on Jobs, Schools and Curbing Costs


Dover – In his weekly message, Governor Markell talks about the issues that governors from across the country focused on during discussions this past week at the National Governors Association winter meeting in Washington, D.C.

“Education, energy, health care and jobs. By the time the members of the National Governors Association had finished their deliberations, Governors representing different ideologies and geographies, some early in their terms and others in their last few months until retirement, unanimously endorsed a series of proposals on jobs, schools, energy, and health care costs,” said Governor Jack A. Markell. “ These are problems we need to keep tackling together – instead of tackling each other – in an effort to keep Delaware, and the nation, moving forward.”

At noon every Friday, the Governor’s office releases a new Weekly Message in video, audio, and transcript form. The message is available on:
