Gov. Scott Walker's Thanksgiving Message

Here is a transcript of Gov. Scott Walker's weekly radio address, which aired on Wednesday.

Hi, this is Scott Walker.

This year, Tonette and I are glad to have our oldest son, Matt, home to join with our other son, Alex, and our parents as we enjoy the blessings of our family on Thanksgiving Day. We are so very thankful for our family and friends.

It is also a time to again say thank you to the many people in our state who volunteer to help others in our schools, at senior and community centers, in places of worship and so many other locations across Wisconsin. And a special thanks to those who went east to help recover from Hurricane Sandy.

Finally, we say thank you to all of our men and women who proudly serve in the military. To them, their families and our veterans; we say a very special thank you!

From our family to yours, we hope you have a safe and peaceful Thanksgiving.
