well, that's my dream and my vision for south dakota.he next generation is watching us and we must do everything we can to strengthen our state so that it's a place where we can one day launch their careers and raise their families. i hope that you will all join me in that effort. over the past few weeks my team and i have talked with every agency and department and state government. we've heard about the challenges and the opportunities that are facing our state. this information transfer, though, is really the capstone of a two-year long job interview for being our state's chief executive, and over the last two years i was able to do a lot of listening with a lot of south dakotans. i heard story after story of south dakota families about the love they have for our state. they love our culture. they love our wide-open spaces, they love their towns and they love their churches. i do, too, but many families are struggling. they're struggling to get ahead. parents lie awake at night and they wonder if they're one medical emergency away fro

[applause] gov. burgum: we truly live in a state of abundance. north dakota's have the humility -- dakotans have the humility to understand that our abundance derives from our natural resources. mainly our soil, water, cold, wind, gas, and oil. combining these resources with the power of human ingenuity has allowed us to build and grow in increasingly diverse and dynamic economy. the private sector has allowed us to build and maintain a strong foundation in k-12 and higher education, investing much in our number one resource, the young people of north dakota. we can make smart, bold investments with long-lasting impact and at the same time deliver a budget that is structurally sound to improve transparency, replenishes reserves, and yes, we can do all of that, and do it without raising taxes.

once again, north dakota is on the grow. [applause] our economy isn't the only place where our health is improving, north dakota moved up five spots from number 18 to number 13 in this year's america's health rankings by united health foundation, including ranking 1st in air quality. our oil and gas producers continue to shatter production records. daily output has increased to a record 1.39 million barrels per day in october, strengthening our position as the nation's number two oil producer. we also produced a record amount of gas in october, an incredible 2.56 billion cubic feet per day, which is nearly double what we were producing in june of 2014. we rank 6th in overall energy production, proving to the world that energy production and environmental stewardship aren't mutually exclusive. a good example is the intelligent pipeline integrity program, or ipipe, a public-private partnership studying emerging technologies to detect and prevent pipeline leaks. they are studying emerging technology to detect and prevent pipeli

but i think that the culture of the north dakota oil field and north dakota generally is a lot more broader in its resistance to victimization. people there, when you ask them about, you know, their economic situation, the struggles they've had in their life, they really resist this idea of being victims. they say, you know, i made some mistakes in my life. i could have made better choices, and it's up to me to find a better job and to fix my life. and so that was a really common theme there when i was reporting on the oil field. and this was the biggest oil rush in modern u.s. history. when it started in about a decade ago due to advances in fracking and horizontal drilling, people often compared the bakken oil rush to the california gold rush. it drew people from around the nation to find work, to hide out, to invest and to run from the law. and people came by amtrak, they hitchhiked. some, rumor had it, took a bus straight out of prison. and there were some crucial differences. one is that these old gold rushes in california and the klondike gold rush, these had a very speck rahtive natu

what does this matter to north dakota? it matters for two reasons, improving health and increasing income, that would consume more energy. they will need more food or protein and more technology. the world will need more and more in the coming decades up with north dakota has. second, it matters in the context of the united states and north dakota's role in the world. as american citizen, we all know that we are blessed with freedom of religion, freedom of speech, the right to assemble, the right to code property and the right to bear arms. part of our democracy each of our 5 50 states as a laboratoryf democracy coming each state can be a platform for innovation coming and we have an administration in dc that understands the states created the federal government, not the other way around and in north dakota, we now today can choose our own destinies. today the state of the states is that we stand at the cusp of a new era in the history and by harnessing the courage we will cultivate a prosperous future for generations to c

south dakota has a governor. i'd expect she's going to do an absolutely fantastic job for the next eight years. more important than, that i've got a job to do for the next two years. and i think it would be a little insulting to the people of south dakota for me to take my eye off this ball and to focus on one down the road. they may throw me out on my ear in 24 months and if they do that, that's their prerogative. they're the bosses. i think they're a lot less likely to do that if i make sure i'm taking care of business now. reporter: what part of this job that gets a lot of attention is your first floor speech. you have thought about what it's going to be about? mr. johnson: i haven't. what i want to be, before i start making speeches on the floor of house, i want to be relevant. i think anybody can show up and say -- not anybody, any member of congress can show up and they can give some great speech with flowering oratory, but what if nobody's listening? or what if the people who are listening aren't really ta

-- dakota spiritual leaders and successors. so my paper is really what accounts for this very different reception of these memorials? the obvious answer is one was a black lead project about black historical atrocities, and the other was a white initiated project about indian suffering. in this controversy came on the heels of an uproar over the tz'se artist dana schu "open casket," about emmett till. the african-american artist and writer had written an open letter to the curators, admonishing the artist pretreating black pain as raw material. but there may be deeper reasons for why one of these memorials and then accolades other, scorn. i will keep it there. last one. first, this is scratching below the surface a little bit. there is a collaboration element versus an individual arts project. the national memorial for peace and justice was a long-term, coordinated effort that included multiple artists, but sam durrant made "scaffold" without ever consulting any dakota people and this particularly incensed them. from a dakota p

the monument does not really focus on the dakotas pain -- dakotas' pain or experience up close -- colonialism. the memorial represents the names of the lynching victims in the inner sanctum. representationno of the dakota men who were hanged, nor did it include the names, and protesters, in fact, displayed signs with the names of the 38 men who were hanged. comparisonnt of would also be the narratives that each of these memorials create. the national memorial for peace and justice has a clear narrative about the historical links between enslavement and mass incarceration. "scaffold" is on the launch of examples without historical context. there are lots of other examples . i would invite all of your interpretations.
