. >> the next speaker is miss jenkins. >> good afternoon. i represent the real estate department. i would like to say the puc has always represented the plan should be for the delivery and protection of the water. they were then responsible for generating income through properties. the new vision was to focus on real estate development, and they propose to hire more people in the area. this has been attempted in the past. the puc has had little or no supply of surplus and excess land. to claim there is a need to create new positions due to lack of skills or expertise in certain functions is unfounded. they have always worked on complex transitions related to development, and those have been diminished. should the budget move forward, long time city employees with literally 150 years combined service who have already been trained are being who replaced with new hires who must be recruited, interviewed, trained, and worked years to develop the relationships already in place, and i say this because there is no guarantee these employees will be hired. these are generalists classes we

who plays this charlie chaplin-esque character, searching for his long-lost girlfriend, and richard jenkins and i. they are fully drawn characters, and i love the fact that it is, and sad -- it is comic and sad. i love the challenge of creating the character in trying to flesh it out. tavis: you're first, it struck me immediately, that you like playing characters that are not always sure who they are. what did you mean by that? >> i think sometimes there is so much that is one-dimensional. i love to work with directors and producers who give you the freedom to kind of falter and be ambiguous. it gives you a chance to flush out and search. to me, the fun of acting is reacting, which is what i have always like to do. acting is what you get from your fellow actors. it gives you the grist for the mill. i'd just like that way of working. tavis: i only ask this because i saw you speaking about this. the comment that he made, fare freezing, at your age -- paraphrasing, at your age, you don't get a chance to play three-dimensional characters or romantic characters. could you expand on that? >> i do

i thank senator scott jenkins for running legislation to create a governor's economic development coordinating council. this council will insure that the collective efforts of government and the business community are focused on job withs, jobs -- jobs, jobs and more jobs.

[applause] two of the most important ways government can nurture a business-friendly environment are, one, keep taxes low and, two, make regulations fair. many states are raising taxes. in utah we are in the enviable position of being able to keep taxes low and still pay for essential services because we saved for a rainy day when times were good knowing a storm would eventually come. despite this ongoing economic gale, my budget maintains at least $110 million in the rainy day fund and reflects my commitment to keep taxes low. increasing taxes on our citizens and our businesses will be count

jenkins: thank you, mr. speaker. mr. gorbachev, tear down this wall. with those words president reagan felled not only a wall quiding a city but an ideology -- dividing a city but an ideology dividing the world. i carry a piece of that wall with me today and though 20 years have passed, i am struck by the enormity of what this used to represent. and the currently, conviction and character of the man who stared down the soviet empire and won. president reagan was not just a, he was the great communitier -- communicator. but it wasn't the style that made the difference. his content and corresponding action. too often rhetoric is thrown around in this town with little thought and even less action. as we celebrate this 100th birthday of president reagan, i desire that we can remember that not only did president reagan inspire us with hope for a new morning in america, but he took real action that led a country waiting in gas lines, on the brink of nuclear war, and reminded us all that we truly are a shining city on the hill. with that i yield back. mr. gal
