Nixon, Napolitano to tour Joplin today

Gov. Jay Nixon and Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano will be in Joplin today to tour tornado-damaged areas:

The goal of the visit is to thank local law enforcement agencies that responded at a moment's notice to help victims and search for survivors in the days following the deadly twister. More than four-hundred firefighters, police officers, state troopers and other officials offered their services following the May 22 disaster that killed 141 people.
