Designating Thursday, January 21, 2010, as "Generation West Virginia Day".

Whereas, Generation West Virginia is a statewide movement committed to cultivating and engaging young talent, those twenty-one to forty-five; and
Whereas, The retention, recruitment, and advancement of young talent is critical to the future of our State's economy, communities and intellectual infrastructure; and
Whereas, This broad-based collaboration of young leaders within Generation West Virginia involves individuals from all walks of life, careers, and communities who are committed to a positive and strong present and future for our great State; and
Whereas, Those twenty-one to forty-five years of age in West Virginia include more than 600,000 of our State's population and represent our State's future base of workers, dreamers, innovators, educators, entrepreneurs, leaders and most importantly our hope for a successful future; and
Whereas, These young leaders are not just the future of our state, but the rising leaders of today who will make it possible for West Virginia to compete successfully with the world; and
Whereas, By working to make our State attractive for young talent, it is possible to prevent the historic "brain drain" from continuing and build a strong future for our State to become a global leader; therefore, be it
