The successful record of employee-owned firms in benefiting both companies and employees merits recognition; now
THEREFORE:
I, NATHAN DEAL, Governor of the State of Georgia, do hereby proclaim October 2011, as EMPLOYEE OWNERSHIP MONTH in Georgia with October 13 as EMPLOYEE-OWNER DAY and encourage our citizens to learn more about ESOPs and to contribute toward creating and retaining jobs in our state.
