Governor Schweitzer works nation to lure new businesses to Montana

October 6, 2008View for printing

Four hundred feet underground and three miles horizontally into Signal Peak Energy's coal mine, a top executive summons miners to meet Gov. Brian Schweitzer.

The miners gather around, clad in hard hats, jumpsuits and boots.

"If it wasn't for Governor Schweitzer, we wouldn't be where we are," said John Demichiei, the company's chief executive officer. "He's been an advocate for coal mining. He's taken political risk supporting us. We need to show him our support."
