SIXTY-FIRST LEGISLATURE BUDGET SESSION
FEBRUARY 13, 2012
Mr. President, Mr. Speaker, members of the 61st Wyoming Legislature,
Secretary Maxfield, Auditor Cloud, Treasurer Meyer, Superintendent Hill,
Chief Justice Kite and members of the judiciary, citizens of Wyoming.
Good morning.
Thank you for the warm welcome and for the prayer to open these proceedings.
And welcome to members of the Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho Tribes
who join us today. Thank you for taking the time and making the trip from
Wind River Indian Reservation to be here.
Treasurer Meyer, a special welcome to you and Mary, all of us couldn't be
more pleased you are quickly recovering and are here today.
Some 13 months ago, I had the privilege of delivering my first State of the
State address as Wyoming's 32nd Governor.
This morning represents another
first - my first state of the state to the Legislature for a budget session.
What is the condition of Wyoming?
Well, while other places face extreme revenue shortfalls and severe budget
constraints, Wyoming does not.
The nation continues to be plagued with high unemployment - still north of
8%. In contrast, while Wyoming's unemployment rate in winter 2010 was 7.5%,
it has been under 6% since June 2011 and stands at 5.8% by latest reports.
Wyoming is strong in employment.
After visiting with Secretary Salazar last February in Washington D.C. about
delays in coal leases, we had five coal lease sales this past year including
some record sales in terms of price.
We remain number one in trona production; we have 70% of the world's supply
of bentonite; we are number one in coal production; we are number one in
2
uranium reserves; and year in and year out we rank first or second in natural
gas production.
These resources equate to tremendous value. The total value for minerals
produced in Wyoming hit $15.5 billion dollars in 2010, the second best year
ever and up 23% since 2009. Wyoming remains strong in minerals.
Tourism even in lean times continues to be a strong contributor to our
economy. In 2011, record revenues were generated by travel in Wyoming. We
have world-class views, world-class recreation, and world-class hunting. Such
assets make us a great tourism destination with millions every year enjoying
what only Wyoming has to offer. Wyoming remains strong in tourism.
Agriculture continues to do well. Livestock prices this past year were a
tremendous boost to producers and to all of Wyoming. Wyoming remains strong
in agriculture.
Small businesses are job creators. Wyoming, for the past four years has fewer
failures in small business than almost any other state. Wyoming remains
strong in small business.
During a time when so many had credit ratings drop, our state's credit rating
went up. In May 2011, Wyoming joined only a handful of other states to
receive Standard & Poor's highest (triple A) rating. Conservative budgeting
and forecasting practices were cited for the upgrade.
A report from The Tax Foundation recently put Wyoming at the top (number one)
of its index of states with good tax climates.
We have over $14 billion dollars in assets and can build on savings again
this year while continuing to invest for future success through wise
appropriations. Wyoming remains strong financially.
Every year a report ranks states to determine how well they are run.
The recent report ranking states is good news for Wyoming. This is not due to
my work, but rather because of the work of the private sector, this
legislative body, past administrations, public employees and Wyoming citizens
who commit to remain fiscally conservative.
The report noted that Wyoming has the fourth lowest rate of violent crimes
and the sixth lowest unemployment rate. The report also cited the high
percent of our adult population, age 25 years or older, that are high school
graduates. At 92.3 percent, out state ranks first in the nation.
Our strength in employment - minerals - tourism – agriculture, small business
and financial stability have once again allowed Wyoming to be rated as the
"Best Run State in the Nation.
Congratulations Wyoming. I am pleased to report the state of the state is
strong.
Beyond the picture painted by these figures and reports, we have small
businesses that are thriving, teachers that are innovating, community
colleges and a university that continue to advance.
3
We have a citizenry that while small in numbers is big in spirit and
accomplishment. Hard-working citizens in every sector make our state strong.
Our communities are a source of great pride, and we want them to have what
they need to compete and to prosper. After all, it's on Main Street where
businesses grow and jobs are created, not in the Capitol building.
Funding for communities and infrastructure are a high priority, even with the
special budget discipline we have to exercise this year.
We don't want to be penny wise and pound foolish. We have sufficient
resources to save wisely, invest wisely in our communities and our
infrastructure, and at the same time make necessary reductions in budget
growth. Just as homeowners don't wait for the roof to fall in to fix it, we
should not wait to fix and enhance our critical infrastructure - roads,
landfills, water systems, and the like.
We invest for the future through careful saving and careful spending. I
believe my
budget recommendations strike the right balance.
Despite the many areas of good news, we know not everyone in Wyoming is doing
well; we know we are not a bank that only cares about the bottom line; and we
know we are not an island. We have seen economic instability grow and spread
across Europe. We have watched debt mount at the national level. We have
observed the effects of an unstable global economy.
We absorb this news because we are not insulated from developments outside
our state's borders. We feel the effects of what happens around us, for
example, the effects of lower natural gas prices. National and global
uncertainties and energy price fluctuations require us to redouble our
efforts to keep the economic recovery going and growing in Wyoming.
Jobs and the economy must remain top priorities. Therefore, we must continue
to look for ways to diversify our economic base. We have made some headway.
The NCAR facility in Cheyenne will house a one petaflop supercomputer. A
petaflop is equal to one quadrillion computer operations per second. From
bytes to petaflops, we've come a long way in computer technology and, with
the supercomputer; Wyoming is in the thick of things.
Wyoming's weather, energy availability and affordability, and location on
major east-west and north-south highways and rail lines make our state a good
fit for tech and other businesses.
In this regard state government must set an example of leadership and use of
Information Technology (IT). We must expand our use of teleconferencing. We
must have a single agency in state government that consolidates IT services.
Senate File 33 will take us there.
I was pleased to announce last year that, for the first time, we managed,
through cloud computing, to get state employees on the same email system.
This cloud computing system provides for greater collaboration.
This move to a new system provides savings and increased security. Among
other things, cloud computing makes our email a stronger tool by providing,
4
for the first time, an easy method for every state employee to email any
state employee and for the public to do likewise.
The backbone of IT technology is broadband. When I took office, the state's
major broadband provider had only two towns in Wyoming capable of high speed
gigabit broadband. Thanks to a public-private partnership, this company
expanded this capability to an additional 18 Wyoming communities.
We increased the reach of this level of high speed connectivity to our
schools this past year by more than 250%. We must continue our work with
additional public-private partnerships, with both large and small companies,
to expand IT in Wyoming. To further this effort I have asked to carry over
$15 million dollars from last year's appropriations for recruitment of techrelated businesses and data centers, and I support an additional $15 million.
Funding for technology is essential but alone is not enough to diversify our
economy and build businesses and jobs - education will be key to this effort.
As home to some of the world's mightiest computing power, we are looking for
ways to increase opportunities for Wyoming in the area of Science,
Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education. The economic drivers of
our state demand workers with knowledge and skills in these four important
fields. Just last week, over 100 educators and businesses came together in a
STEM summit to explore options and move forward.
We will continue to push STEM education.
In Wyoming we are blessed with wonderful natural resources. It is our people,
however, that secure our future.
Every child is a blessing and the well-being of our children determines the
well-being of our state. Providing the best education in a safe environment
goes a long way to expanding our children's horizons.
In partnership with the Wyoming Business Alliance and
Foundation, I co-hosted a Business Forum in Cheyenne for
last November. We heard Wyoming business success stories
family, about Mountain Meadow Wool, and a business woman
very well, Lisa Shepperson, in addition to many others.

One of the national speakers crafted his speech around a top 10 list of those
things Wyoming needed to improve upon in order to lead in economic
development. The top five items in his list were all the same - education,
education, education, education, education.
As I meet teachers from all over the state, I recognize our good fortune in
the quality of educators, and it continues to improve. I also recognize that
we have yet to get the results we want. We need to do better.
Wyoming and this Legislature have shown their strong financial commitment to
education. We need now to show commitment to a strong and consistent message.
Administrators and teachers have grown frustrated with mixed messages,
changing ideas on testing and shifting views. The public grows weary of
debate without direction.

While education is complex, we should all agree on a fundamental goal that
carries forth and drives future decisions. The goal I seek agreement on is
this: Wyoming should strive to have a K-12 system that is second to none. Is
this possible? I believe it is, and I worry less about setting the bar too
high and more about setting it too low.

Nothing

We need accountability in our schools, accountability in our parents. And
with every decision, all of us should make it known that mediocrity is not
acceptable.
We don't need to push all students into a four-year university. Career and
technical education programs are perfectly viable alternatives.
Likewise, not everyone has to go to a traditional public school. Religious
schools, home schools, virtual schools and charter schools can provide
innovative ideas and alternatives to parents. But whether public school or
not, all of our kids need a topnotch K-12 education that prepares them for
the future.
To ratchet up the quality, we need more rigorous standards. Common core
standards have been debated and discussed. I asked for more public
participation and comment in the process of their consideration. This has
been done.
Now is the time, without regard to what the federal government may want, for
us to step up, refuse to be left behind and accept common core standards as
determined by Wyoming citizens. We are not signing on with federal
curriculum. These are Wyoming standards. We are signing on to a better future
for our children by demanding more rigorous standards.
If the federal government tries to steer us in a direction we don't want to
go, we will simply refuse. There is no federal hook that will push us from
Wyoming law or Wyoming standards. Wyoming law and Wyoming standards control.
I believe we have the resources, the talent and the opportunity to move
forward for higher standards. Our education system needs them. Our Wyoming
kids deserve them.
An example of talent is Brent Daly from Gillette. Brent is Wyoming's teacher
of the year.
Brent stands out as a humble, passionate and caring educator. He delights in
seeing his students grow through their experiences in his science classroom,
through student council, and through the numerous activities he sponsors in
the Gillette community.
People who know Brent speak about him in superlatives - such as, he is the
rarest of teachers, he wants the best for his students, he is the most
inspiring. One student wrote that his experience in Brent's chemistry class

and Brent's encouragement led him to pursue studies in the field of chemical
engineering.
Brent, please stand and let us

As I wrote in my budget message, the state budget must acknowledge the limits
of government.
We must be good stewards of public dollars, recognizing that while we may not
be able to meet all the wishes of today we must strive to meet all the needs
of tomorrow. The budget I submitted in December was balanced and trimmed our
sails. In January, after the report of our Consensus Revenue Estimating Group
(CREG) I went back to the drawing board.
The January report forecasts a significant reduction - about $113 million
dollars lower over the next couple years. The lower forecast was based mainly
on estimates of natural gas prices, which the CREG revised downward from
$4.00/mcf based on the large supplies and mild weather. We should all be
aware that natural gas prices have been stuck in the mid two dollar range for
some time and the CREG price forecast may be overly optimistic.
Based upon the revised estimates, I reduced my original budget proposal by
about $64 million dollars to take the latest forecast into account.
The budget revisions I submitted in January, together with my original
proposal, produce a balanced budget, allow for savings, and take a strategic
approach to reducing the budget. At the same time, I have not recommended
deep across-the board cuts to agencies. Instead, I used a targeted approach
identifying those areas where we could slow or even reduce growth.
Some cuts have been made, but we should distinguish between cuts and reducing
growth - there is a real difference. Slowing growth, which is what my budget
focuses on, is not a cut.
For Wyoming to continue to be strong we must ask what those things that have
made us strong are and what must we do to nurture those areas.
Wyoming has remained strong because we are an Agriculture state.
Agriculture was key in the creation of our state and agriculture remains part
of our rich heritage, culture and economy. The well-being of our state
requires the well-being of agriculture. I admit a bias in this area, but my
bias does not just come from my agriculture background it comes from a sense
of all that agriculture provides to Wyoming.
Agriculture does much more than support agriculture families. Agriculture
gives a boost to implement dealers, fertilizer folks, local pickup dealers
and many more. Agriculture supports our two largest industries - minerals and
tourism.
There are 11,000 ranches and farms in Wyoming, representing the largest
average size ranch of anywhere in the United States. Those 11,000 ranches and
farms equate to open space, clean air, clean water, and wildlife habitat.
7
Our ranches and farms provide the lure for tourism, for recreation and for
untold opportunities for energy development. Agriculture lands provide a
shield against action by the federal government regarding endangered species.
These lands also provide sportsmen with unforgettable experiences.
We need to make sure agriculture thrives because it is the stage,
platform, the foundation for so many value-added economic opportunities.
the
Agriculture adds quality to our life experience as Wyoming citizens that goes
far beyond economics.

with inheritance tax issues, some of our longwith an uncertain future.
It is becoming more difficult to get and keep young people in the agriculture
industry. This is an issue for Wyoming and for the country.
We need all options to keep agriculture's future secure. For some families,
conservation easements are a preferred alternative to selling out.
The Wyoming Wildlife and Natural Resource Trust plays a role in easements and
is part of the picture in ensuring a strong future for agriculture in
Wyoming.
The Trust is an independent state agency established in 2005. In its seven
years, the Trust has completed projects in all 23 Wyoming counties - more
than 323 projects to date. Over $35 million dollars from trust funds have
been allocated for these projects. Matching contributions from other sources
have brought total expenditures to about $200 million.
Not surprisingly, a recent report shows that benefits from the Trust's
projects include economic ones. A December report from the UW Ruckelshaus
Institute estimates the Trust generated more than 500 jobs annually and
nearly $21 million dollars in labor earnings in Wyoming since 2006.
Whether you hunt or fish, whether you are a stock grower, or stockbroker, or
just a person who relishes the outdoors and all it offers in Wyoming, our
quality and way of life are tied to successful conservation efforts.
I have included funding for the Wildlife and Natural Resource Trust in my
budget recommendations and ask for support of this funding, for agriculture,
for conservation, for tourism and for energy - all a big part of Wyoming's
future.
Outside of my budget recommendations, I am asking for your support on my
proposed wolf plan. After years of court battles, where every year the number
of wolves increases by about 10 percent, where we have lost the ability to
manage that which belongs to us - our wildlife, where wolves threaten our
agriculture, wildlife and outfitters, it is time to move forward.
We must accept the fact - if Wyoming is to have wolves and it is clear that
we are – we have a scientifically sound approach that gives us management and
the ability to have a balance in terms of numbers.

If we don't move forward, we diminish

Some disagree with my plan, instead believing a solution lies in the hands of
a few judges and we should continue in the courts. We have had some good and
some not so good results in the courts, but no court decision has led to onthe-ground changes. And time is not on our side. Every year we fail to manage
wolves the number of wolves increases.
As for me, I would rather have this body make a proactive decision than hope
for the best in courts. I don't know what the future of court decisions may
be, but it seems less than a good plan to continue into a third decade in the
courts, where to date we have not gained the ability to manage wolves, the
numbers keep going up, and the only proven winners have been the attorneys
and the wolves.
I acknowledge, unlike Montana and Idaho, we have not yet received
congressional approval of our plan. Of course, we learned that despite
congressional approval Montana and Idaho were both promptly sued.
In fairness, I think it was a hard lift for Congress to give blanket approval
to a plan that had yet to be peer reviewed or even made law by Wyoming.
If this plan is approved, I will work with our very able congressional
delegation and others to seek congressional approval of a plan that I remind
you both the Secretary of Interior and the Director of Fish and Wildlife have
already approved.
More importantly, the Wyoming Stock Growers, the Wyoming Wool Growers, the
Farm Bureau Federation, the Wyoming Outfitters and Guides and Sportsmen for
Fish and Wildlife have endorsed the plan. I thank each of those groups for
their help and leadership.
Agriculture is important to me, important to Wyoming, and important to our
country. In addition to all the collateral benefits agriculture provides, our
country needs the security that comes from being able to feed our citizens.
On a lighter note, if we cannot stay an agriculture state, it is hard to have
a bronc on our quarter, our license plates, and those wonderful UW helmets
and jerseys.
Moreover, how can Wyoming continue to have people like Jhett Johnson - a
sixth generation rancher, a cancer survivor, a rodeo star - without
agriculture.
Ladies and Gentleman, join me in welcoming Jhett Johnson, this year's world
champion team roper from Casper, Wyoming. Jhett is part of Team Wyoming and
he proved in Las Vegas that there is no one better - no one in the world. We
are pleased to have you here Jhett, please stand.
Jhett, you may be interested to know that I was a team roper myself, but
putting the two of us in the same room is like combining matter with
antimatter. I was the world's worst, you are the world's best.
Congratulations, Jhett, and thanks for making Wyoming proud.

Wyoming remains strong because we are a tourism state.
I recently wrote a message for our state highway map about climbing Wyoming's
impressive peaks, exploring our state parks, or just kicking back and taking
in our state's incredible beauty.
Wyoming has so many places and vistas that lift the spirit, satisfy the
adventurous, soothe the soul, and our citizens are ready with a smile and
welcoming hands. Tourists enthusiastically respond to all Wyoming has to
offer.
Numerous budget recommendations - for example, for the Tourism Board, Game
and Fish, State Parks and Cultural Resources, the Wildlife Trust, and Board
of Outfitters - directly or indirectly support tourism. I would ask this body
for its continued support of Wyoming's second largest industry.
Wyoming has remained strong because we are an energy state.
In addition to agriculture and tourism, Wyoming is an energy state; more
accurate would be to say, Wyoming is the energy state. We are proud that,
compared to all 50 states, we are the number one exporter of British Thermal
Units (BTUs).
Every single Wyoming citizen enjoys and benefits from what mineral
development provides. The Wyoming Taxpayers Association estimates minerals
directly and indirectly contribute up to 80% of the state's revenues.
We want our mining and oil and gas industry to remain strong. To keep the
energy sector strong, we must seek to ensure longevity for these industries
and maximize the benefit of production.
We should encourage value-added projects that in addition to adding value,
provide new technologies, new efficiencies and cleaner uses for our raw
products.
This is why I asked for about $6 million in funding for enhanced oil
recovery. This is why I support looking at projects from coals to liquid,
from natural gas to liquids, and why I support a move to allow Wyoming,
rather than the federal government, to regulate greenhouse gases.
This is also why in my budget I have asked for strong funding for the School
of Energy Resources - $20.4 million for the regular and continued operations
of the school; $10 million to implement new strategic areas of concentration,
$10 million for energy partnership matching funds; $2 million to begin a CO2
pipeline network; and $1 million, matched by external funds, for continuity
of carbon storage and other research. I am pleased to see that the
appropriations committee added another $5 million dollars.
Wyoming should be viewed not just as the place to get the product but as the
place to get the technology and intellectual value, too. We can do this with
continued robust support of the University of Wyoming and our Community
Colleges and partnering with the private sector on new innovative projects.
Wyoming must develop a sound energy policy that recognizes the value of
development and the value of conservation. America needs all energy sources.
Wyoming has the ability to provide energy now and in the future as long as we
10
maintain a balance to development that recognizes all that we love about
Wyoming.
In Wyoming, we have a long history of energy companies and individuals in the
energy sector who have given back to their communities and our state.
All of us can name many of these individuals without much effort, but today I
want to introduce one of many Wyoming energy producers who gives back Maurice Brown from Cheyenne. As a boy, Maury made money shining shoes and
selling newspapers. Instead of going to college he helped his parents run a
grocery store.
In Laramie County and beyond, it is the rare charity event where Maury is not
only in attendance but donating to the cause. He supports 4H-FFA, Meals on
Wheels, Salvation Army, YMCA, the animal shelter, COMEA, Safehouse and many
more worthy causes. He buys University of Wyoming football tickets for kids
who cannot afford them and even rents a bus and buys lunch for the kids going
to the game.
Maury is a Wyoming man, a business man, an energy man whose business success
is only surpassed by his generosity.
Maury, please stand and let us recognize you as we recognize all the folks
from energy who give back to Wyoming. Thanks for all you do.
Small business entrepreneurs are driving forces in Wyoming and America.
Wyoming is strong because of the many small business that thrive here.
According to the most recent information provided in January by the Small
Business Administration (SBA), small businesses totaled over 58,000 in
Wyoming in 2009. Based on this report, small businesses represented about 96
percent of our employers and employed over 64 percent of our private-sector
workforce. The SBA reported that these businesses are central to Wyoming's
health and well-being.
The ingenuity, work ethic and can-do attitude of those engaged in our small
businesses remind us of what made this country great.
In Jackson, Ashley Watson started Mountains of Groceries a little over four
years age. For the first year, Mountains of Groceries was a web-based grocery
delivery service. Through Ashley's hard work, the business grew beyond
grocery delivery to other services, like custom gift baskets, party planning
and more.
As the business has grown, Ashley

Congratulations, Ashley. Thank you for representing young people and small
businesses so well. Please stand so we may acknowledge you.
For years Wyoming suffered from drought. We wished for the drought to end,
and we got more than we wished for last year.
11
We had such an excess of moisture and run-off that landslides occurred,
streams became swollen and dangerous, highways were flooded and closed,
agricultural lands were affected, and communities were at risk. This
presented a significant challenge, not only because of the magnitude of the
run-off, but also because the problem was not localized - it affected the
entire state with some areas harder hit than others.
I took a novel approach and called out the Guard before the flooding hit. I
issued a state disaster declaration early on, and the President followed with
a federal one.
The Guard and our Office of Homeland Security were hard at work, at our side,
throughout the disaster. The Department of Corrections, the Wyoming
Department of Transportation, the Wyoming Department of Agriculture, local
volunteers and others pitched in. The Corps of Engineers and FEMA provided
resources and materials. Towns and counties mobilized local resources as
well.
The State handled the challenge posed by last year's spring flooding well.
Thanks to the planning effort, when a flood-related event occurred, we were
able to address the situation quickly.
As it was, estimates for flood-related repairs to highways are over $31
million (with about 90% federally funded and 10% Wyoming Department of
Transportation funded). This figure shows the order of magnitude of the
damages even with the state's effective response to the situation.
And our thoughts and prayers remain with those who were most affected by the
flooding, where the losses are permanent, where lives were lost.
An example of the strength of Wyoming communities is how they responded to
the floods. A mayor of one of our local communities, John Zeiger of Saratoga,
is here today. Mayor Zeiger, in responding to a call to assist as the county
emergency coordinator, was injured when his vehicle was swept away at the
same site where four people lost their lives.
With water rising around him, he did not think he would see his family again.
He was rescued and said he felt fortunate to be alive.
As our emergency responders and law enforcement officers often do, Mayor
Zeiger put himself in harm's way - thinking of others before thinking of
himself. Mayor, please stand and let us thank you for your service.
General Luke Reiner, the Adjutant General of the Wyoming National Guard, is
another person high on the list of those who give of themselves in service to
others.
As I mentioned, General Reiner and the Guard helped immensely during the
flooding last year. The Guard has also continued to be deployed to
Afghanistan and elsewhere.
The fact is no country has ever been better served, or made more proud, by a
military than America so while we thank General Reiner and the Guard, let's
12
take time to thank all the men and women who have served or are serving in
the armed forces. General Reiner, please stand.
We know we can count on our military in emergencies and in defense matters,
and we appreciate all you do.
I'll end where I started today - with the budget.
We know that the federal role in the budget is diminished and for the most
part I have not sought to replace federal dollars with the principal
exception being Medicaid.
We recognize that the standard budget has more than doubled over the last
decade and cannot continue on this trajectory over the next decade.
I have made a number of one-time requests for this biennium because such a
strategy requires review on a regular basis, reduces the opportunity for
creeping growth, and increases transparency.
I support $15 million

I asked for about $168 million dollars for communities and infrastructure
spending for both new construction and maintenance efforts.
I also asked for $100 million of new dollars for highways.
And I asked for savings.
Not all issues have been resolved. Additional discussion is needed regarding
the Department of Health, from emergency detention dollars to Medicaid
funding. A legitimate case has been made for raises for judges, janitors and
others. In making a decision on what if any raises are given we must be
guided by past considerations given, sustainability and fairness.
I ask for your support for the Pavilion water solution effort and on worker
safety. As we work through the many issues, my door remains open to all of
you.
I want to say it's been a great honor to serve the State this past year.
Carol and I and our children, Mary and Pete, have met so many gracious,
interesting, talented people. We have attended so many wonderful community
events.
We feel blessed to have the opportunity to serve as Wyoming's first family.
Wyoming is on the right track. We are a state that has proven we can still
guide our future. We can solve our problems better than Washington can and we
can do it in a way that is better for Wyoming. We will produce a budget something not done in Washington in over 1000 days. And we will produce a
balanced budget – something not accomplished in D.C. for far too long.
I have mentioned we are the best run state. We must make certain that
Wyoming's legacy does not only have the title of the best managed state but
that every child, every family and every business is managing the best, doing
13
the best. Working together I know Wyoming can continue to be the best in
title and in reality.
Thank you and may God bless the United States and the great State of Wyoming.
President Anderson:
Legislature, I thank
message to us.
Governor Mead, on behalf of the members of the
you for attending this Joint Session and for your
President Anderson:
Members of the 61st Legislature, Distinguished Guests,
Ladies and Gentlemen, I now present the Honorable Marilyn S. Kite, Chief
Justice of the Wyoming Supreme Court.
STATE OF THE JUDICIARY
MARILYN S. KITE, CHIEF JUSTICE
FEBRUARY 13, 2012
Mr. President, Mr. Speaker, Governor and Mrs. Mead, members of the 61 st
Legislature, elected officials, members of the judiciary, and citizens of the
State of Wyoming.
It is an honor to speak to you on behalf of those that
serve in the judicial branch of this state's government.
Thank you,
President Anderson and Speaker Buchannan for the invitation to do so.
While the duties and responsibilities of each of the three separate and
independent branches of government are different, we share the obligation to
serve the public with honor and dedication to our constitution.
We are
fortunate in Wyoming that the three branches of government show each other
mutual respect. Sadly, that is often not true in the rest of our country and
once again things are different, and better, in Wyoming. I speak for all of
the members of the Wyoming Judiciary when I wish you all of the energy and
wisdom you will need as you address the difficult issues ahead of you in this
session.
We know you are anxious to get started and I know you will be
pleased to hear that I will not delay you long.
The faces of Wyoming's judiciary have changed since I reported to you last
year. Long time Clerk of the Supreme Court, Judy Pacheco, known to many of
you, retired last week.
She has certainly been the friendly face of the
court providing assistance to lawyers and citizens alike for many years. We
will miss her greatly.
We are pleased that the imminently qualified Chief
Deputy Clerk, Carol Thompson, will take the reins of that office and provide
leadership as the judicial branch continues its transition to the digital
age. Sadly, we lost retired Supreme Court Justice Walter Urbigkit who also
served as a distinguished member of this body.
We will honor him later in
May at a special memorial session of the Supreme Court and he will be
remembered as a dedicated public servant and a stalwart defender of the
constitutions of our state and nation.
I would be remiss if I did not
mention that this will be the 23rd and last Joint Session that Justice
Michael Golden will attend as a member of the Supreme Court.
He is facing
the mandatory retirement age of 70 contained in our constitution, a provision
that you recently have considered removing and we would urge you to do just
that. No other state government position is limited in such a way and we are
all realizing just how young that is and how much many of us can contribute
after that age. We don't want to think about how much we will miss Justice
Golden's wit and wisdom and will certainly take the opportunity to honor him
during the upcoming year.

To update you on projects I mentioned last year; 1) the Wyoming Center for
Legal Aid is up and running; 2) after the increase in the dollar threshold
for civil jurisdiction in the circuit courts last session, simplified
procedural rules were adopted and 1,000 new cases were handled by those
courts without any increase in staff; 3) the Supreme Court IT department has
developed and implemented electronic payment of fines in all of our circuit
courts which has resulted in over $3 million coming into state and local
governments 24 hours a day and from all over the world; 4) we are hoping the
Highway Patrol will finish its side of the e-citation effort and we can begin
receiving citations electronically this summer; 5) our district court
electronic docket management system will also be rolled out this summer.
This session you will be addressing, in SF26, a Joint Judiciary Committee
bill providing for a new district judge in Johnson County. The 4 th Judicial
District, which includes both Johnson County and Sheridan County, is the only
single judge district in the state.
Economic development and population
growth in that area have resulted in an increasing caseload that is much more
than one judge can handle. The Board of Judicial Policy and Administration
strongly supports that legislation and believes the citizens of that area are
in need of additional judicial services that one judge cannot provide.
As we all know, our democracy requires educated and involved citizens who
understand the fundamental structure of our government. Without that, pubic
trust and confidence are at risk. National surveys show that two-thirds of
our citizens cannot identify the three branches of government, let alone
describe their respective responsibilities and a third cannot name any.
Fewer than a third of eighth graders could identify the historical purpose of
the Declaration of Independence; 15% of adults correctly name John Roberts as
United States Chief Justice, but almost twice as many (27%) could identify
the judges on the television show "American Idol."
Last year, our Supreme
Court learned about a project called iCivics, conceived of and initiated by
retired Justice Sandra Day O'Connor which, among other things, has developed
video games aimed at middle school students that teach players to write
legislation, act as president, or argue a case before the Supreme Court. We
have worked with the Governor's Office and the Legislative Service Office to
bring that project to Wyoming.
This Thursday, Wyoming's three branches of
government will introduce iCivics to over 50 Wyoming educators from around
the state They will also have the unique opportunity to enjoy a live video
conference address by Justice O'Connor herself.
I would invite you to
attend, but I am afraid it is already a standing
room only crowd.
We are
confident Wyoming students will not be among those who are uninformed about
their government.
Although there is a natural tensions between our three
branches of government, most of the time good natured, this kind of effort
shows that we can and do work together.
That brings me to the main reasons you are all here this year – that is the
budget. In the Judiciary, we know these are difficult and challenging times
for our country and our state. We see on a daily basis the consequences of
economic hardship.
You are facing many tough choices about how to fund
necessary governmental services.
It is critical that we communicate to you
the needs of the judicial branch and ask for the funding necessary to deliver
Equal Justice for All of our citizens. Keep in mind that the judicial branch
is small, with only 51 judges and 240 employees, and our total budget is $66
million – only 2% of the state budget. Our primary needs are technology and
salaries.
On the technology front, we are pleased the JAC has recommended
approval of the funds necessary to finish the electronic docket management
15
system in which you and we have already invested so much. We are confident
that investment will pay off with more efficient and cost effective delivery
of justice.
With regard to salaries, we have two issues – staff salaries and judicial
salaries. You will recall that you granted a market raise of over $7 million
for the executive branch last year. Because our salaries had not undergone a
review by your consultant, the Hay Group, we used their method to estimate
the $600,000 annually was necessary to bring our employees to 91% of market.
You appropriated $600,000 conditioned upon our completion of a full Hay
study.
However, for the first time in history, a footnote required the
Governor to approve the judicial branch's final expenditures.
Both we and
the Governor agree that condition violated the constitutional requirement of
separation of powers and, therefore, he vetoed that portion of the budget
resulting in the $600,000 flowing into the executive branch which was then
doubled for this upcoming biennium. In the past year, we undertook the Hay
study at your direction at the cost of $57,000 and it demonstrated our
estimate was a little low and about $800,000 was needed to get our staff to
91% of market. It was our firm understanding that the JAC intended in this
session to correct the situation created last year and treat the judicial
branch employees equitably.
Accordingly, we were most distressed to learn
that in the final throes of the budget mark up, our staff salary was first
cut in half and then deleted entirely.
Apparently, the reasoning was that
other state employees were not getting a salary increase this year and it was
only "fair" if judicial employees also did not get raises.
Fair?
That is
like saying in the third quarter of the recent Super Bowl, when the Patriots
were in the lead, the officials decided to change the rules and eliminate the
4th quarter, but don't worry…it was "fair" because they treated everyone the
same.
Fairness does not ignore history.
The executive branch got a market raise
last year, in fact they got our raise too! Now an entry level attorney can
go to work for the Attorney General's office for almost $4,000 more than if
they come to work at the Supreme Court. We are certainly not saying those in
the executive branch did not deserve a raise last year, but were they more
worthy than judicial employees? Of course not. In fact, if you decide not
to correct this inequity, it will be the first time in our memory that you
intentionally provided inferior pay to the judicial branch.
We implore you
to restore those funds to our budget and treat judicial branch employees
equitably.
Even larger inequities exist with judicial salaries. The Hay study informed
us that judge's salaries have fallen disturbingly far behind both the
legislative and executive branches.
We have always known that the private
market far exceeded judicial salaries, but were frankly surprised with how
poorly we compared with other state employees of equal of lesser
responsibility.
Many are paid tens of thousands of dollars more than any
judge. It is difficult to find comparable positions to that of a judge, but
as an example, there are employees in the Attorney General's Office, A & I,
Workforce Services, Game & Fish, Oil & Gas Commission, Department of
Corrections, the Retirement System, and 11 employees in the Department of
Health, each of whom can and do appear before our judges to have their
disputes resolved and rights and responsibilities determined, who are paid
more than a Supreme Court Justice, in some cases $30,000 to $40,000 more.
The same is true for the Legislature's highest paid employees whose pay is
$5,000 to $26,000 higher that a Supreme Court Justice. Please do not hear us
16
to say those people are not earning their pay…I am sure they are. But, as we
examine the last twenty years, it becomes clear this inequity has been
chronic.
Here are the facts.
From 1990 to 2010, Wyoming's cost of living increased
209%, its per capita personal income increased 183%, and average state
employee salaries increased 143%.
Over the same period of time, a district
judge's salary increased by only 82%! Those district judges are essentially
making less than half of what they were making 20 years ago. It is probably
fair to say that this situation is not the result of a conscious decision by
the Legislature, but instead is caused by the manner in which judicial
salaries are considered – only infrequently and then increases that were
really needed to keep up were deemed too large politically so judges are
forced to take whatever they can get. This inequity must be recognized and
corrected so that the three co-equal branches of government are paid
equitably. For the long term, the Legislature should work with the Judicial
Branch to develop a judicial salary plan that avoids the periodic necessity
for judges to beg for salary increases just to keep up.
To become judges, we are asking attorneys to leave successful practices and
to take on a job that is frankly less attractive and more difficult than ever
before.
I can tell you from experience as I have worked to recruit
candidates for judicial openings, fewer and fewer top flight attorneys are
interested.
In the larger districts, historically we have had 30-40
applicants for a district court opening, now we are seeing 10-15.
For the
last circuit court opening in a large district, we had 6 applicants. We have
been lucky to maintain a high quality of applicants, but I truly fear that if
salaries do not keep pace, that will not continue. Over the next 2-6 years,
over half of our judges will retire and the faces of the judiciary you will
see in the balcony will look much different that they do today – fewer lines,
less gray hair. Correcting this pay gap is not only important to those who
now serve, but is critical to the future of this branch of government.
Although we know revenues are limited, we also know that this body will
consider spending many millions more that we are asking for optional
projects.
Equal Justice for All is not optional, it is a core function of
our democracy.
Senate File 40 proposes increases in judicial salaries to reduce that gap and
we urge adoption of that legislation. It provides salaries for the district
judges and Supreme Court that are comparable to the executive branch.
However, the Board of Judicial Policy and Administration, which represents
all levels of the courts, believes strongly that the bill as currently
drafted does not provide for an adequate increase in the salary for circuit
judges and we urge that SF40 be amended to retain the proportionality of
salaries of the three levels of courts that has always existed. We need to
encourage quality applicants for circuit courts.
The proposed salary
structure in SF40 will not do so.
Don't forget that we recruit future
district judges, and ultimately Supreme Court justices, from those ranks. In
fact, two former chiefs of our Supreme Court started out as
circuit judges, Justice Larry Lehman and Justice Barton Voigt.
Each of our judges strives to provide Equal Justice for All of Wyoming's
citizens. Case by case, they must decide whether the other two branches of
government are conforming their actions to the dictates of our constitution.
Tough questions are present in every case we hear and the right answer is
17
often hard to find.
I read a story recently about a Texas judge that
demonstrated just how challenging these questions can be.
In Mt. Vernon,
Texas, Drummond's Bar began construction on an expansion of their building to
increase their business. In response, the local church started a campaign to
block the bar from expanding with petitions and prayers.
Work progressed
right up until the week before the grand re-opening when lightning struck the
bar and it burned to the ground!
Afterward, the church folks were rather
smug in their outlook, bragging about the power of prayer, until the bar
owner sued the church on the grounds that the church was ultimately
responsible for the demise of his building, either through direct or indirect
means.
In its reply to the court, the church vehemently denied all
responsibility or any connection the building's demise.
The judge read
through the plaintiff's complaint and the defendant's reply, and at the
opening hearing he commented . . "I don't know how I'm going to decide this,
but it appears from the paperwork that we have a bar owner who believes in
the power of prayer, and an entire church congregation that now does not."
So as you consider what a judge is worth, picture in your mind the job judges
do every day.
The circuit courts handle over 170,000 cases in which they
determine the rights of creditors, whether a substance abuser will get the
opportunity for treatment, or how to best protect the victims of domestic
violence.
They manage clerk's offices that statewide handle $30,000,000 a
year.
For most Wyoming citizens, the circuit judge is the face of the
judiciary.
In just the seemingly simple act of setting the bond a charged
individual has to pay, something circuit judges may do 30 to 40 times a week,
they must balance public safety with the impact of incarceration on an
individual's job and their family's loss of support.
Rather than trying to
describe to you the importance of their decisions, I would like you to hear
it from one Wyoming citizen whose life was changed by a circuit judge. In a
letter, she said:
"Dear Judge, I want to let you know you saved me from being the next young
woman on the obituary page. When I was on probation, my husband divorced me
and took my babies and my plan was to drink my life away. I was arrested for
public intoxication, and came before your court again, and you told me I was
dangerous and I plead for another chance. Thank you for not giving me that
chance.
I am in a jail based program now and my life really does have a
purpose."
Thousands of individual lives each year like that one are impacted, and
sometimes saved, by our circuit courts.
Over the years since you created
this system, these judges have grown in ability and stature in their
communities and we owe them our thanks and I ask them to stand and be
recognized.
In over 20,000 cases a year, we ask district judges to solve the insoluble
problems of our society one person at a time. When I asked a district judge
to describe his job, he said, "I sit at my desk each morning and begin to
sort through peoples lives.
I determine who gets property and money.
I
decide what is in the best interest of the children in juvenile cases. I
profoundly affect families in divorce cases. I decide who goes to prison and
who doesn't.
I do this within the bounds of a system that provides
substantial discretion knowing that what is perceived as fairness and justice
in my community depends on my decisions."
18
If you look at the schedule for a typical Monday for a district judge, as I
have, you would be stunned by the breadth of the issues they face and the
deadly serious nature of the decisions they must make. Once such day, one of
our busy district judges arraigned 10 defendants charged with everything from
assault on a police officer with a deadly weapon, to a 4th DUI felony, to 7
different drug crimes.
Then he held hearings in 4 juvenile cases, 1 child
abuse case, 2 divorce matters, 2 probation revocations and a sentencing, the
most solemn exercise of judicial authority.
One of the most difficult
decisions a district judge has to make is which
of two deserving parents
will have the joy of custody of the children they both love. The wisdom of
one of district judge is shown in the statement he made at the end of a
difficult divorce case. He said:
"I want you to know that there is no case on the docket more important than
this one, no case with higher stakes than the well being of these good
children. This decision by the court today is the absolute best application
of the law to your facts that I can do. I know that one side does not like
this decision.
But it is the hope of this court that you will respect it,
respect each other and most of all respect your children. Because there will
come a day that you will meet two judges you do have great respect for.
Those judges will be these two children. Please conduct yourselves when you
leave here so that when you look your children in the eye in twenty years,
you can say to them that everything I did was out of love for you. Court is
adjourned."
I think you will agree that is the kind of district judge we want to attract
and retain.
I would like to ask the district judges who are here today to
stand and let us thank them for their efforts.
Further, consider that every one of these trial court decisions, as well as
actions of the legislature and the executive branch are subject to review and
ultimate disposition by the five individuals who are entrusted as the court
of last resort of this state.
Ask yourself what kind of individual you want sitting on the judicial bench
and what are they worth? What is Equal Justice for All worth?
Equal Justice for All.
Those are not just hallowed words.
They are the
creed of every judge.
Judges struggle every day, in every case, to do
justice.
Of all of the values that support our democracy and direct your
decisions as to how to spend the taxpayers' dollars, justice must rank as one
of the most important. In the words of Daniel Webster spoken over 150 years
ago, "Justice, Sir, is the great interest of man on earth.
It is the
ligament that holds civilized man and civilized nations together. Where ever
her temple stands, so long as it is honored, there is a foundation for the
improvement and progress of our race."
It is this same truth that weighs every day upon the shoulders of the men and
women we ask to be our judges.
They trust you to honor their efforts to
provide Equal Justice for All of Wyoming's citizens.
Thank you.

SPEAKER EDWARD BUCHANAN
OPENING SPEECH TO THE HOUSE BUDGET SESSION
FEBRUARY 13, 2012
Mr. Majority Floor Leader, Mr. Speaker Pro Tem, Mr. Majority Whip, Mr.
Minority Leader, Madame Minority Whip, Fellow Legislators of the 61st Wyoming
Legislature, Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, citizens of the
state of Wyoming.
Once again I stand before you as your speaker and feel truly blessed and
deeply honored to serve in that capacity. I thank God for the blessing that
is to serve here. My sincerest gratitude goes to my colleagues in the house
– it has been among the greatest honors I have known – to serve along side
each of you, Republicans and Democrats alike. The people of Wyoming should
know that camaraderie, civility and respect are alive and well in the Wyoming
Legislature. Finally, to the people of Goshen County and the citizens of the
great state that is Wyoming – thank you for your trust in me and allowing me
the privilege to represent and serve you in this hallowed and cherished
institution.
As we look forward to a new year and formulation of the 2013-2014 biennial
budget session, I confidently appear before you to report that our state
enjoys financial stability despite the fact that commodity prices have
significantly declined in recent months.
To demonstrate this reality, know
that between October of last year and today, our forecasted revenues declined
in excess of $100 million dollars.
Despite this, in a recent publication,
Wyoming ranked #1 for its financial position among all states. And I quote
"Wyoming is in the best financial position of all 50 states. . . Wyoming is
in good financial shape because legislators and governors have only promised
citizens what they can afford to deliver."
Fortunately, we have exercised true leadership in recent years which has
resulted in a sound, conservative budget.
That is why we are #1.
It is
imperative that we continue to prioritize and be vigilant in our spending and
disciplined in our saving.
Looking back at my remarks prior to the 2009 General Session, I noted the
following: "I want to remind us all of two things. First, we would not have
a surplus if not for the carry-over money from FY 2008. Second, any surplus
is still projection and the only reason we had a carry-over was because in
the 2008 budget session we showed some fiscal restraint and when we left,
commodity prices rose for the final six months of the fiscal year." So, what
factors are in our immediate control?
Certainly not commodity prices.
But
certainly our fiscal policy is.
I believe we can be cautiously optimistic
going forward this session with an emphasis on targeted investment in our
state – both in terms of physical infrastructure and in people.
Our goals for this session should be focused on one-time expenditures that
invest in the infrastructure of our state. This type of investment not only
24
saves us money in terms of deferred maintenance, but it is an investment in
people in the form of job creation.
Whether we talk in terms of one-time
contracts
for
government
services,
local
government
funding
for
infrastructure or the reconstruction of highways, the result is the same –
money saved, jobs and lasting assets.
Great caution must be exercised,
however, to ensure we do not create or add to existing programs by committing
to funding beyond standard budgets that will obligate us for years to come.
This is risky business even in times of greater surpluses.
Today, we
endeavor to find inventive ways to meet the obligations we created for
ourselves years ago. This is not to say that the programs and services are
not needed and useful. However, some are essential and others, despite what
you hear, are simply luxuries in times of plenty.
We are not in times of
plenty, but if we are careful, we have enough. Our appropriations committee
and staff have done a great job of holding the line on exception requests.
They have created a budget that will provide adequate and essential services
for the state over the biennium. I request that we support them in that work
by staying within the lines when it comes to amendments to the budget. And,
one last thought for you to consider, we will be back in one year, only six
months into the biennial budget, to make adjustments if the need arises and
if our financials are improved.
Though we are here primarily to craft a budget, there are a couple of other
items that merit discussion.
WOLF MANAGEMENT
When it comes to the issue of wolf management, I believe the Governor, with
the
approval
of
interested
stakeholders,
has
demonstrated
excellent
leadership in his successful negotiation of a settlement of this issue. With
only small adjustments to the trophy game management area, our philosophy and
desired practice has remained largely intact and I urge support for this
measure.
EDUCATION
Since 2008 we have attempted to highlight the need for changes in education.
We heard the call for reform and improvement and I am proud to say that we
have taken great strides down the road to accountability and improvement. We
knew it would be years in the making and that it would be controversial at
times, but I believe that stakeholders and committees have done a great job
this first year in beginning a dialogue and taking the initial steps towards
improvements to a system that will be tops in the nation and worthy of the
tremendous resources devoted to it.
Wyoming has more potential than any state in America to produce the best,
highest achieving students in the nation. To that end, I urge your support
of and input into this session's accountability bill and finance bill.
There are several other issues to discuss and consider this session, and I
ask that in every decision you make about those issues, you look at the facts
and the numbers and then make realistic decisions.
Some decisions will be
met with gratitude, others met with disdain, but if you are factual and
realistic, the result will be a win form Wyoming and her people.
Thank you and God Bless.

REMARKS BY MAJORITY FLOOR LEADER
REPRESENTATIVE TOM LUBNAU
Mr. Speaker, Mr. Minority Leader, Mr. Speaker Pro Tem, Mr. Majority Whip,
Madame Minority Whip, Mr. Minority Caucus Leader, fellow members of the 61 st
Legislature, family members, friends and guests.
Let me begin by acknowledging our servicemen and women around the world.
are grateful for your service.
We
We live in an amazing world. In the last few years, our oil and gas industry
has developed the technology to release incredible quantities of gas from
underground formations that were previously thought to be impossible to
develop.
Billions of cubic feet of natural gas are now available to power
our nation's economy.
Our children, and our children's children will have
cheap, clean and abundant available energy to power their lives and their
standards of living. For the first time in a generation, the United States
of America is an energy exporting nation.
And, the State of Wyoming, and our energy partners, are exploring ways to
export our energy to a world starved of energy, that know that energy is the
key to an increased standard of living.
But, this revolution in the energy economy does not come without necessary
adjustments.
While Wyoming's energy supplies are vast, and our industry
remains robust, we are not the only player in the market. Huge gas supplies
lay closer to the markets, and unless there is a really cold spell, there is
more gas than is needed to meet the demands. Gas is being stored underground
and in the pipelines.
The huge supply of gas as resulted in a decrease in
the price of gas.
This decrease in the price of gas has some interesting effects on the Wyoming
tax revenues, which are generated primarily by the energy industry.
First, a decrease of the price of gas by one dollar results in a decrease in
the state's tax revenues of about $120 million dollars from the school
foundation program account, for a decrease of nearly a quarter of a billion
dollars.
Second, cheap and available gas is being used to replace or phase out coal
fired power plants.
As a result our coal sales decrease.
A 1% decline in
coal sales is equivalent to a $20 million dollar decrease in the state's tax
revenues.
Through conservative financial management in our times of plenty, we have
positioned ourselves to be prepared for declining revenues. Wyoming has been
rated as the most financially sound states in the country. When other states
are talking about closing schools, laying off employees, cutting benefits,
cancelling services, our state has to make some minor course corrections, to
remain stable, but Wyoming is open for business, our economy is robust and
our state employees will be treated well.
Over the next four weeks, there will be talk of budgets being cut. The truth
of the matter is that no salaries, positions or operating budgets were cut in
the proposed Joint Appropriations Committee budget.
We have scaled back
increases in the budget request to meet our declining revenues. Our budget
is stable and designed to continue to meet the needs of our citizens.
26
As stewards of our state, during this budget session, it is our fiduciary
duty to the people of the State of Wyoming, our friends and neighbors, to
examine our budgetary trends, to anticipate the future, and to prepare for
any eventuality. With that in mind, this budget session, we need to take a
close look at certain areas of our budget.
HEALTHCARE
In the late 1990's, the Department of Health's budget was near $400 million
dollars.
Currently the budget is nearly $1.6 billion dollars – a nearly
four-fold increase in 12 years.
The Department of Health consistently has
cost overruns in the tens of millions of dollars. We have been working in a
partnership with the Executive Branch, but we must continue our efforts to
slow the growth of Department of Health expenditures.
EDUCATION
Education is the walrus in the living room. Expenditures from school finance
and capitol facilities in 2011-2012 are estimated to be nearly $2.3 billion
dollars.
At the same time, our revenue streams that fund education have
dropped to nearly that level. At the time that our revenues decline to less
than our expenditures, we are constitutionally mandated to backfill those
sums from the general fund.
The result will be general fund dollars being
dedicated to education and diverted from other programs.
This diversion is
taking place at the same time as there is a general fund revenue drop,
resulting in a double hit on the general fund budget. As a result, we need
to closely monitor the growth of the education budget, and make sure we live
within our financial means.
STATE EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT
Perhaps no other issue has generated as much e-mail, on a bill that has not
been introduced, yet, than the review of state employee retirement. Let me
be clear.
There is no proposal currently on the table to modify existing
state employee retirement terms.
We do need to examine the program going
forward, to insure financial stability.
Wyoming has the best-funded retirement program in the nation.
It is 19.9%
funded. In real terms, that makes us the tallest Leprechaun. We have placed
$600 million dollars in the fund, since I've been in the legislature, to keep
it solvent. Right now, conservative estimates place the fund at $1.4 billion
dollars underfunded. We need to analyze the program, and look at the trend
analysis with a critical eye.
We have a duty to our retirees to make sure
the plans are solvent. We have a duty to the voters to be responsible with
our funds, and we have a duty to future generations to insure we don't saddle
them with our current debts. So, we will examine that fund, and do what must
be done to be true to our promises to our dedicated state employees.
We have financial priorities we would like to fund, but we must uphold the
tradition of fiscal prudence to leave the same financial legacy our
predecessors left us.
REDISTRICTING
The other big issue on our plate is redistricting.
The Joint Corporations
Committee has done a marvelous job on putting together a plan.
We will be
true to the principle of one-man, one-vote and we will come forward with
legislation that will withstand constitutional muster.
27
STATE'S RIGHTS
I'd like to conclude with a comment about state's rights.
The State of
Wyoming has been mining coal since the 1860's. We have been drilling for oil
since 1884. We've made some mistakes, but we've fixed those mistakes. Does
anyone think Wyoming is the paradise it is by accident?
We live here.
We
work here. We raise our children here. We love our land and our resources,
and we take care of them.
Don't assume that because we live in a rural
state, we are not zealous protectors of our heritage.
It is our state's
right to regulate what happens within our borders, and we will protect our
resources with the same prudence and passion as we manage our fiscal affairs.
I would like to say thank-you to Governor Mead and his staff.
They have
upheld the fine tradition of professional, visionary executive leadership.
I would be remiss, and probably couldn't go home, if I didn't acknowledge the
sacrifices of my wife Rita and son Thomas, who generously support me in my
legislative efforts.
It is a humbling honor to stand before you as majority floor leader.
have an amazing responsibility to the future of the State of Wyoming.
Thank you.
We all
God bless you, and the Great State of Wyoming.
REMARKS BY THE MINORITY FLOOR LEADER
REPRESENTATIVE PATRICK GOGGLES
Speaker Buchanan, Majority Floor Leader Lubnau, Speaker Pro Tem Gingery,
Minority Whip Throne, Majority Whip Quarberg, members of the House of
Representatives, honored guests, friends and Wyomingites.
As I stand before the Wyoming House of Representatives today, I would like to
thank this body for standing by me and my family when we needed your support
the most during the past year.
Your concern, emotional support and
consideration was uplifting, appreciated and certainly an act of kindness
that will not be forgotten. I now know I am one of you and will carry that
memory for the rest of my days, for it is a special piece of life I will
relate to my grandchildren and great grandchildren.
I am grateful to stand before you today as we convene the 61 st Budget Session
of the Wyoming Legislature. It is an honor to be entrusted with carrying out
the people's business.
There are time-tested principles that we must remember over the next twenty
days; principles that Wyoming has often stood for like equity and justice.
We will be tested, but I believe each and every one of us has the ability to
hold true to these principles on behalf of the citizens of this great state.
As we move forward, establishing interim committee processes should be our
guide as a mean to an end.
This means that interim decisions partitioned
from partisan or political wrangling need to be held in perspective.
When we consider the redistricting plan we must remember that it is not about
individual districts, but the state as a whole. This is a plan the people of
Wyoming will be represented under for the next decade. We need to make sure
it does voters, not any lone legislator, justice.
28
This also applies to our children and education – we should adhere to a wellestablished and equitable process for capital school construction without
unnecessary interference and unintended consequences.
Do not forget the incredible landscape we all enjoy and often take for
granted. When our most basic needs, like clean air and clean water, are not
met we need to address the problem, immediately. We will continue struggling
to balance the effects of development, but we must meet our obligations to
protect the needs of citizens from Pinedale to Pavilion to Pine Bluffs.
Protecting our citizens also means enforcing the laws we put in place. We,
as a legislative body need to address Wyoming workers that die on the job
every ten days. This is a national rating we should not accept. We should
use both carrots and sticks to change what has become an unacceptable norm.
We often say, "Wyoming solutions to Wyoming problems," and I believe that is
the correct approach.
We need thoughtful, appropriate legislation for the
challenges we face in Wyoming whether that means bargaining with our
firefighters or addressing pension challenges. We should be informed by the
experiences of others, but adamant that solutions do not turn into one-sizefits-all models.
Most importantly, we must not forget our greatest asset and that is one
another. It is only by coming together and working together, especially at a
time when the national landscape is so deeply divided, that we, the Wyoming
Legislature can make positive and lasting gains in a bi-partisan fashion. We
should seek to find a sound balance in all that we do.
Mr. Speaker and members of the Wyoming House of Representatives, Thank you.
Speaker Buchanan:
Mr. Majority Floor Leader and Mr. Minority Floor Leader,
thank you for your remarks. We look forward to working together this Session
in a spirit of cooperation for the benefit of Wyoming citizens.

GOVERNOR MATT MEAD'S 2012 CLOSING REMARKS
61ST BUDGET SESSION
To cap off the 61st Legislature Governor Matt Mead thanked both the Wyoming
Senate and House of Representatives for a very productive session. Governor
Mead said, together, the branches of government tackled very important
issues, most importantly passing a balanced budget that makes important
investments.
In speeches before lawmakers Governor Mead said that this session resulted in
improvements that make Wyoming stronger. "When we started this session with
my State of the State Address, I said clearly that the state of the state is
very strong," Governor Mead said. He said we continue to build a stronger
state, "We look at education, we look at connectivity, we have a balanced
budget and we have savings. This is not just my opinion but those looking at
Wyoming from outside recognize it as well." Governor Mead said this is why
Wyoming is recognized as the Best Run State in the country and the state with
the best tax structure and one of the best places to do business.
The top issues Governor Mead pointed to as successes for this session include
investments in cities, towns and counties, enhanced highway funding,
redistricting, a plan to allow Wyoming to manage wolves, a move to assert
state primacy in the regulation of greenhouse gases, funding for a long-term
water solution for people outside the town of Pavillion, and improved
workplace safety.
Governor Mead did tell lawmakers that there is hard work ahead and Wyoming
will likely have to do more belt-tightening. The Legislature called on state
agencies to prepare 4% cuts next year. Governor Mead said this is partly due
to declining revenue from natural gas, but also because he believes Congress
needs to stop spending so much money. "We hope they do and, if they do, it
will mean less money for the states. That will be cause for tightening our
belts even further," Governor Mead said.
Looking ahead Governor Mead said he will be working with legislators to find
a permanent source of funding for Wyoming highways, for improvements to the
state's tax structure and ways to improve health care and reduce costs. With
health care, Governor Mead pointed out that this budget includes $560 million
dollars in state dollars for Medicaid, which is up from $80 million ten years
ago. This shows the level to which Wyoming is already involved in health care
and changes are needed. "If you ask legislators, I think they too are
disappointed in the amount we are spending on health care and they too are
looking for solutions, but collectively we have not found them and I think
one of the things we can tackle in the next year is providing some possible
solutions to the Legislature," Governor Mead said.
Governor Mead reiterated that Wyoming has an opportunity to diversify the
economy to include more of a technology sector. He said the funding available
now allows Wyoming to provide incentives to data centers and other technology
companies while ensuring that any company that comes here can stand on its
own.
Mr. Speaker:
Governor Mead, on behalf of the members of the House of
Representatives, I thank you for your closing remarks to us. Representative
