Rick Scott Releases Solemn Video Message for Yom Kippur

The Governors Office released a video of Gov. Rick Scott offering a message for the start of Yom Kippur.

As the sun sets this evening, Floridas Jewish community will begin observing its most holy day of the year, Yom Kippur. This is a solemn day of introspection and contemplation. It is a day that reminds us all that through forgiveness, prayer, and charity we possess the ability to remake our communities, our state, and our world.

Ann and I would like to wish an easy fast to all Floridians observing Yom Kippur. May you and your loved ones be sealed in the book of life for a happy, healthy, and prosperous year.
