DENVER—Today, Speaker of the House Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch, released the following statement in honor of the beginning of Hanukkah:

“Tonight, our Jewish friends and neighbors across the state will gather to celebrate the first night of Hanukkah.  During these eight-days, we remember the great miracle that happened long ago when the Maccabees rose against their oppressors and rededicated the Temple. 

“The miracle of Hanukkah, and the candles that light it, remind us of the light that faith has in our lives, even during the darkest of times.      

“This Hanukkah, may we all give thanks for the blessings in our lives, and work together to create a brighter, more prosperous Colorado.

“On behalf of the House Republican caucus, I wish you a happy and blessed Hanukkah.”
