We thank Thee for our many blessings - for life and all that sustains life. We thank Thee for the United States of America and for our citizenship in this choice land. Thou has established this great nation as a beacon of freedom and a citadel of spiritual strength to all the world. We thank Thee for this sovereign state of Utah. We sense, at least to some degree, the faith of its founders who made the desert blossom as a rose. Others followed, to bring diversity and breadth to their budding society. Together they forged a unique inheritance for us. We thank Thee for the citizens of this state and for their duly-elected leaders. In this hallowed chamber, we thank Thee for these distinguished men and women who serve as legislators. They represent regions, religions, and parties of personal preference. We express profound gratitude for each of them. Wilt thou bless them and their families. Bless their personal affairs. Bless them with safety in their travels and fulfillment in their endeavors. Help them to strengthen ties that bind us together as a people. May their lofty example minimize differences that could be divisive. Bless them to maintain high priorities with principle above politics, wisdom above knowledge, and morality above expediency. Wilt thou also bless the Governor and fellow legislators who serve in the Senate. Bless the citizenry of Utah to live harmoniously. We host visitors here who flock as doves to our windows. Ours is the privilege to serve them and to show a standard that will lift them. May these guests return homeward with a passion for peace and recollections of righteousness to relieve a troubled world. Again we thank thee, oh God, for thy goodness at the commencement of this legislative session for the year 2003. I prayerfully invoke a blessing upon these elected representatives of the State of Utah and do so by the authority vested in me, and in the sacred name of Jesus Christ, Amen. * * * Posting of the Colors by the Utah National Guard.

REMARKS BY SPEAKER MARTIN R. STEPHENS Let me begin by thanking former Speaker Norm Bangerter, Elder Russell Nelson, Mr Akagi, the Calvary Baptist Choir, and the Utah National Guard for helping us with the opening of this legislative session. I sincerely appreciate the tone that has been set for us here today. I'd like to make a few brief remarks as we begin this session. Rarely has a legislative session begun with the dark clouds of trouble hanging over it as does this session. The news reports from yesterday#s four major newspapers, I think, accurately reflect the mood as we begin our deliberations here this day. The Salt Lake Tribune said; "Disaster, it is said, brings people together, and so it appears with the 2003 legislative session..." The Deseret News Headline read: "2003 Legislature: Into the fray, Legislators face dwindling funds, new demands." The Provo Daily Herald opened with "If 2002 was the year of budget woes, Utah legislators are now finding themselves in its sequel..." "I've got the feeling it's going to be a pretty bad year," said one of the legislators. And finally, the Standard Examiner said: "Tough Times loom on the Hill. It may be a mild winter in Utah but on Capitol Hill there is definitely a chill in the air. That chill could be in the form of budget shortfalls or rising rolls in education that have yet to be funded. It could be the state's rising unemployment rate and parallel decline in income tax revenues. Or the hundreds of indigent Utahns who may be bumped from Medicaid because of higher co-pays and proposed steeper eligibility requirements. "I'm worried," said one of the legislators quoted in the story "There are more contentious issues than I can ever recall seeing since I've been here." Again, welcome to the Fifty Fifth Legislature... I hope all of us, particularly those of you new to the House today, recognize what an interesting and challenging time this is in which we have the opportunity to serve. Today there are 37 House members of 75 that sit in this body that were not here prior to two years ago. To put it another way, as of today, 49% of this body has two years or less experience in the legislative process. Difficult problems, both in the budget and otherwise and a fairly young group of legislators. . . , am I concerned? Not at all. This is as good a group of legislators as I have seen in this House since I have been here. While we may lack in legislative experience, we have skillful people from all walks of life willing to pull together to do the business of the people. Our form of government is founded on the idea of citizen lawmakers coming together for a short period of time to deliberate the important issues of the day and then going home and having to live with those decisions among the general public. It is a great system of government, and it works. I only want to touch on two issues today. The first is the budget difficulties we are facing. Every year since 1988 the state of Utah has had a budget surplus until last year. In several of those years, the surpluses combined for the several budget years addressed during those sessions were in excess of 500 million dollars. We were able to put huge amounts of money into public education which has helped an under funded system tremendously. We have invested in higher education and human service needs, embarked on significant road construction and maintenance programs, put unprecedented amounts into our building maintenance and renovation programs, and also given over a billion and a half dollars worth of tax cuts to the citizens of the state. We face a different challenge today with budget deficits, and still growing responsibilities. But, the situation we now find ourselves in is not all bad. After 14 consecutive years of budget surpluses, I don't think it hurts at all to have to slow the growth of government and re-look at how we are spending the hard earned money of the citizens of this state. If we don't do it now, when will our state government ever individually assess each of the programs and services we are providing? If not now, when will we ask government to do what all families and businesses have to do in times of financial difficulty, eliminate waste and duplication to accomplish their mission less expensively? If not now, when will we prioritize government spending into a "nice-to-have" and a "must have" list and do a better job of providing the must haves and seriously evaluate if we should even be providing the nice to haves? We have a unique opportunity, to force a dramatic change in the funding of government that would not otherwise be available in years of plenty. I hope we will take this opportunity to do what I think the citizens of this state would want and carefully scrutinize every program that is funded by state government and emerge with an efficient, low cost, governmental organization that can capably provide those services which we are required to provide. The real advantage to this is that if we eliminate those programs that are "nice-to- haves" or that may not be as efficient, then as the economy turns and state revenues begin to increase again, we will have more money to allocate to those constitutionally required roles of government, such as public and higher education, rather than having to spend some of the growth to fund inefficiencies. Thomas Jefferson said it best in his first inaugural address; "With all these blessings, what more is necessary to make us a happy and prosperous people? Still one thing more, fellow citizens - a wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. (Thomas Jefferson, 1st Inaugural Address) The choice is ours. The task is not easy. But, the long-term rewards will be significant and well worth the effort. The second issue that I want to touch on briefly is simply a hope for the future. It is a hope shared by many of the civil rights advocates such as Dr. Martin Luther King, whom we honor today. As has been mentioned frequently, there are going to be many significant issues of general concern for discussion at the capitol this year. Some of them have the potential to be very contentious and divisive. Many of these issues are issues that people feel passionately about and have strong convictions to those beliefs. There are good people on both sides of these issues and they often come to their opinions through a different set of life experiences, which may lead them to see things differently than we do. Some of the more potentially contentious issues we will face will be tuition tax credits, hazardous and radioactive waste issues, the bank and credit union issue, abortion and other so called moral issues, and general funding issues related to the budget. In our quest for success in our efforts to promote issues or causes that are important to us, let us conduct the affairs of this body with civility and respect. A noted religious leader said it this way; "Civility carries with it the essence of courtesy, politeness, and consideration of others. All of the education and accomplishments in the world will not count for much unless they are accompanied by marks of gentility, [and] of respect for others..." (Gordon B. Hinckley, Standing for Something, pg. 47) Dr. King also said on this issue specifically, "If you will protest courageously, and yet with dignity and Christian love, when the history books are written in future generations, the historians will have to pause and say, `There lived a great people-who injected new meaning and dignity into the veins of civilization. '" (Martin Luther King, From an address given in Montgomery, Ala., Dec. 31, 1955) Not all who come here to the capitol in an attempt to influence the legislative process will be able to return to their homes with a successful outcome in their attempt. Where people disagree on an issue, one of the responsibilities we have is to try and mediate and assess which course of action will be best for the citizens as a whole and choose between competing ideas. Thus by the very nature of the process some will not be happy with the outcome. However, all can and should be able to leave this building with a sense that the process was fair, that we as legislators were respectful and sincerely tried to understand all sides of the issues. Let us strive to re-enshrine the faith of the people in their elected leaders to be fair and deliberate, with a sincere attempt at civility and respect for the opinions of all. Let me close with a quote a friend shared with me last week from the new biography of John Adams. His wife Abigail wrote the following to him in a letter regarding his desire to participate in governmental service. She said; "You cannot be, I know, nor do I wish to see you, an inactive spectator..." She went on say... "We have too many high sounding words, and too few actions that correspond with them." (Abigail Adams, John Adams, by David McCullough, pg. 17) Let's make this a session that takes on with enthusiasm the challenges with which we will be confronted. Let us take this opportunity to reassess and re-prioritize the workings of our government. Let us address these issues with kindness and civility, and let well-reasoned, thoughtful debate be the byproduct of our actions. And finally, let us make sure we do not "have too many high sounding words, and too few actions that correspond with them." I believe this legislature will rise to the occasion. I look forward to joining you in the effort. Thank you. * * * On motion of Representative Dillree, the House voted to adopt the same House Rules and Joint Rules for the Annual General Session of 2003 as adopted in the Annual General Session of 2002.
