    Good morning, Rev. Fathers, Gov. McGreevey with lovely wife Dina,
    Consul General of the Republic of Poland  Agnieszka Magdziak Miszewska,
    friends and guests of our Governor,


     
    On behalf of the Polish American Congress, NJ Division and the Polish Community, I would like to thank you for the
    invitation and for holding the raising of  the flag in honor of “Poland’s Independence Day.”

                 Governor McGreevy, you have constantly shown friendship and support toward Polish-Americans and once again, this is another display of your kindness.  Many of us here are aware of your close connection with Polonia since your childhood, which was further developed when you became Mayor of Woodbridge.  As Mayor, you visited Poland and became more involved with issues between Poland and the U.S.  We hope that you will be able to make another trip to Poland together with individuals from New Jersey who are interested in investing in Poland.

    I know that Poland has a lot to offer and with your help we will be able to bring a closer connection between Poland and New Jersey on both an Educational and Economical level. Not only Poland will benefit from these contacts, but New Jersey’s investors and the economy will profit from this as well.

     If all of our efforts together are successful then you, Governor, will also gain by getting the friendship and support from almost one million Polish-Americans living in New Jersey.

    However, there is one more issue which concerns us, there are very few Polish-Americans that have been appointed to your administration in New Jersey.  We wish to see more Polish-American’s in your administration in the near future.

    I would like to wish you, Governor, your wife and your whole family a healthy and continued successful life.  We hope that all of your efforts and dedication to hard work during your administration will be rewarded and that New Jersey residents will benefit.
