So, thank you.Īnd, to all of my friends and supporters, I thank you during this really long election cycle.įinally, I want to give all praises to God for blessing me to be able to see this day. Without you and your constant support, I would not be able to stand here today. You represent the city, the state, the metro area, and this nation.Īnd, of course, I want to thank, with all my heart, my family and my friends. Thank you to all of the other current and former elected officials here… Thank you all for being here. Again, congratulations and I look forward to working with each and every last one of you.Ĭongratulations to the judges who were sworn in today, and I thank you for your service, and for you to continue to serve the city well and maintain the sanctity of our justice system. I know the work of the city council, as a former council member, and the people are counting on you to continue to passionately represent them for the next four years. I want to congratulate you for stepping up and making this big commitment to continue to serve the people of Atlanta. I want to congratulate all of the members of our city council and our city council president one more time.

It really means a lot to me, to be back in this arena, to receive this honor on this campus. I want to first thank Georgia Tech, my alma mater, and President Angel Cabrera for allowing us to have this ceremony here today at Bobby Dodd Stadium. Which one of you city councilmembers is going to make an ordinance to say that no one should ever call us ‘Hotlanta’ again? This is, indeed, the day that the Lord has made.
