hover link working in IE7&8 not in other browsers

For the css hover link, the Governor and Director names on the header IE7 and IE8 work fine, however, it won't work in:  Safari, Firefox, Chrome, and Opera.

Pat Quinn, Governor          Jack Messmore, Acting Director
but where have you given the :hover styles for links under?

#GovDirLinks ul li a: hover
{
}

#GovDirLinks a:hover{
      font-weight:bold;
      font-size:small;
      color:#FF0;
}

I inserted:  /* Header name links */  into the css so that you can find it easier.  Not only does it not change color, but the mouse pointer is not turning into a hand.

So, is the issue resolved now? Is anything pending?
It works in IE, but it won't work in Safari, Chrome, Firefox, or Opera.  What is stopping the other browsers from not seeing the <a href> link, and not changing color?
can you update the css to add the :hover style for them, so that i can check it here?
I moved it out of the CSS include and put in the <style> tags in the <head> section
