Governor Kevin Stitt thanked a member of his team who has been right by his side throughout the pandemic.

“Also want to give a shoutout to Jimmy, who has done a fantastic job this entire time with the sign language. I wonder if he’s signing ‘thank you’ to himself right now,” Stitt said.

Jimmy Mitchell has been Governor Stitt’s sign language interpreter since last March. Mitchell is deaf and has a partner who relays the governor’s words to him so he can sign them to the audience and people watching virtually.
