Columbia, S.C. - June 26, 2009 - Governor Mark Sanford today issued the following statement after his Cabinet meeting:

“More than anything, today was about letting my team in the Cabinet know how sorry I am for letting them down,” Gov. Sanford “But more importantly, today is a reminder that our work goes on. Each of our agency directors has a job to do in serving the people of South Carolina, and despite how I have disappointed them and the people of South Carolina collectively, we all have important roles to fill in this larger Administration.

“I remain committed to rebuilding the trust that has been committed to me over the next 18 months, and it is my hope that I am able to follow the example set by David in Bible - who after his fall from grace humbly refocused on the work at hand. By doing so, I will ultimately better serve in every area of my life, and I am committed to doing so.”
