Job creation, innovation and bringing disrupting change to Olympia were major themes in Governor Jay Inslee's Inaugural Address to a joint session of the Legislature Wednesday. "We must move, swiftly and boldly, to put this recession behind us and bring forward a unique economic strategy that brings the best of Washington State to the world," said Inslee. "A new world economy is emerging from the depths of this recession, and while its contours and relationships are not fully understood to us, we do know two things. One - with our uniquely powerful fusion of values and talents, Washington State has the potential to lead the next wave of world-changing innovations. Two. The world will not wait for us….We truly live in extraordinary times. We also live in an extraordinary state, filled with extraordinary people. We have a spirit of innovation here in Washington that has changed the world…and you know what? We are not done."
