Thank you, Rabbi Levertov!
And thank you to everyone for being here for blessed occasion.
As you can see, the holiday season is upon us and this evening, we get to make our State Capitol shine even brighter!
This menorah, like Hanukkah itself, tells a story we can ALL appreciate and embrace;
A story of LIBERATION
and of a people who fought honorably -- and prevailed -- to defend their faith and freedom.
A story of HOPE and PEACE and a reminder that -- even in the darkest and most desperate of times -- we can trust in God to light our way.
That's something we can ALL celebrate this joyous holiday season.
As I light this candle one last time as Arizona's Governor I thank you for letting me share in this rich and glorious tradition.
I wish you all a peaceful, prosperous and bright holiday season.
Happy Hanukkah!
