Approved by: Date: Title: Department: HR Approval: Revised Job: ® New Job: Replaces: 2 Induction Speech of Ross C. "Rocky" Anderson, Mayor of Salt Lake City January 3, 2000 Welcome all to this magnificent building — a monument not only to the creativity and grit of those who came before us, but to the vision and historical sensitivity of those who determined in the 1980s to preserve and restore it. It was here that Utah's Constitutional Convention was held in 1895. It was here that the first state legislative sessions were held. And it was here that Martha Hughes Cannon, a physician, served as the nation's first female state senator. In order to achieve that honor, Dr. Hughes had to defeat her husband, Angus, in the 1896 election. In 1914, the fourth floor was the site of the trial and conviction of Joseph Hillstrom — better known as Joe Hill, who was executed at the penitentiary, which was located at what is now Sugar House Park. Frankly, I'm hoping for better things on the fourth floor during the next four years. I have sworn today to uphold the Constitutions of the United States and of the State of Utah. Let us join together in honoring and observing the constitutional rights and freedoms for which so many have sacrificed. And let us reflect in the way we live each day of our lives the foundational values upon which our Constitutions so solidly rest. That is the most basic, yet the highest, calling for any citizen. Let us breathe life into our Constitutions — by demanding equal treatment of all under the law, regardless of race, regardless of ethnic origin, regardless of religion, regardless of gender, and regardless of sexual orientation; by acknowledging the right of all to freely express their views; and by insisting that our governments, and those who act on behalf of our governments, refrain from the violation of basic human rights. Then let us go beyond the specific constraints of our Constitutions to a recognition of the fundamental values upon which those constitutional protections are based. The drafters of our Constitutions recognized the tendency of governments — and of governmental officials — to impose too much on those who are governed. For that reason, our Constitutions provide fundamental protections for our persons, our property and our liberties. The essential values thus promoted are security, dignity, and freedom. However, to be secure in our homes, in our neighborhoods, and throughout our community; to enjoy lives of dignity; and to be truly free individuals, it is not enough to rely upon the specific protections of the Bill of Rights and other constitutional provisions. Security is found only when we can walk our streets free from fear of assaults. Security is found only when we send our children off to school free from any concern that they will be caught in the vicious web of drug abuse, violence or cultural degradation. And security is found only when we know that we, J and our loved ones, will be free from deprivations of shelter, food, or health care. Dignity is promoted when each of us is free to obtain an excellent education. Dignity is promoted when each of us can enjoy a sense of accomplishment at a job that pays at least a living wage. And dignity is promoted when our government treats us, and when we treat each other, with civility and respect. At their core, our Constitutions intend that we be free — as free as any people in any nation at any time. However, freedom requires far more than resort to particular constitutional provisions. Freedom means that we can live each day without fear that our bodies — and the bodies of our loved ones — will be poisoned by the air we breathe, by the water we drink, or by foods that contain toxins unbeknownst to us. Freedom means that we can enjoy, and that as responsible stewards we can preserve for later generations, open spaces — saving us from much of the asphalting that is occurring over far too much of our earth. And freedom means that we have places where we can gather together as a real community — places that are vibrant, interesting and open to all people and all views — places that will draw us together. Acting together — diligently, cooperatively, and in good faith — we can achieve far greater security, far greater dignity, and far greater freedom for ourselves, our families, and our fellow citizens. i . . , As a community, we inevitably have disagreements among and between us. However, regardless of our race or ethnic origin, regardless of our faith, and regardless of our economic situation, we are bound by far more common values, common concerns, and common aspirations. While remaining true to our convictions as to those matters upon which we disagree, let us exert the full strength of our passions and our vigor in working together wherever we find common ground — in providing for a safer, more secure community; in according respect and dignity to all our fellow men and women; and in remaining constantly vigilant in the assertion of our freedoms. Let us never permit bigotry to rule our thoughts or actions. Let us never let cynicism creep in where hope, commitment and belief in a better future should be. And let us never forget that each of us can make our own life far more enriched by giving a helping hand to those in need and in forging a better community. The best from each of us results in the best for each of us. Our individual lives are enriched by living and working in a community to which we contribute. May we all contribute in our own way to one another and to our community. And may we all find the bounteous rewards that inevitably come from service to others. Thank you for the trust you have invested in me. I will do my best in serving you and our great City.
