When I introduced the Fiscal Year 2007 operating budget in                                          
December, it reflected my administration's commitment to ensuring                                   
each Alaskan has the opportunity to fully participate in Alaska's bright                            
future.

I am pleased with the Legislature's support of our proposals.  Our                                  
work together reflects our shared vision for the future and means every                             
Alaskan can have hope for what the future will bring, instead of                                    
simply hoping for a future.                                                                         
                                 Sincerely yours,
