The Public Record
Mary Landrieu is a former United States Senator from Louisiana, serving from 1997 to 2015. She was the first woman to represent Louisiana in the Senate. A member of the Democratic Party, Landrieu focused on issues such as disaster recovery, healthcare, and energy policy during her tenure. She played a significant role in post-Hurricane Katrina recovery efforts, advocating for federal assistance to rebuild the affected areas in Louisiana.

The People of Louisiana did not send me to the Senate abrogate that power in favor of the President.
