Nixon: Measure Me On My Jobs Plan

"You sit here in the state with a little over 200,000 people unemployed, that to me, is my problem."

In our sit down interview, Governor-elect Jay Nixon wouldn't put a number on exactly how many jobs he hopes his economic package would create, but said finding jobs for all of Missouri's unemployed would be his priority.

Nixon went on to say that at the end of the legislative session in May, voters should judge him on the jobs plan that is produced.

"It's really not about us. It doesn't matter if there's criticism. It's about these goals that Jay has set out, and it's much bigger than us,” said Georganne Nixon, answering whether her family is prepared for the critical limelight.
