MOSEIA 2014 ANNUAL CONFERENCE

SHOW ME SOLAR: CLEAN, LOCAL
POWER FOR MISSOURI’S ECONOMY

February 1, 2014

John Farrell
Director of Democratic Energy
SHOW ME
U.S. Congressman Willard Duncan Vandiver

"I come from a state that raises corn and cotton and
cockleburs and Democrats, and frothy eloquence neither
convinces nor satisfies me. I am from Missouri.
You have got to show me."
SHOW ME
A number of miners from the lead districts of southwest
Missouri had been imported to take the places of
Colorado mine strikers. The Joplin miners…required
frequent instructions. Pit bosses began saying,
"That man is from Missouri. You'll have to show him."
