Script of "Overseas" (TV)

ANNOUNCER [v/o]: In Washington, Congressman Kenny Hulshof let big corporations increase profits by shipping Missouri jobs to China.

(Text on screen: Vote 228, 2000)

The result? Missouri lost over 45,000 jobs to China trade. From Rolla to Columbia, St. Louis to St. Joseph.

But Hulshof continues to support these failed policies. And he says Missouri's economy is doing just fine.

(Text on screen: "Hulshof... said the economy generally is doing well." -- Jefferson City News Tribune, 06/24/08)

The difference? As governor, Jay Nixon will cut taxes to create jobs here.

Jay Nixon. The change we need.

(Text on screen: Paid for by Nixon For Governor, Craig Hosmer, Treasurer)
