St. Louis, MO – Both political parties will have new leaders in both the Missouri House and Senate next year. KWMU's Tom Weber recently spoke with all four new legislative leaders.

The last of those interviews features new Speaker Rod Jetton. He's taking over for Catherine Hanaway, who will leave the House after a failed bid for Secretary of State.

Jetton says he's on the same page with most of Governor-elect Matt Blunt's agenda, in part, because voters last month rejected Governor Bob Holden's agenda.
