Senator Mary Landrieu

Mary L. Landrieu has been referred to as “one of the Senate’s foremost leaders on education” by her colleagues in the Senate. One Louisiana publication dubbed her “Military Mary” for her dedication to our armed services and her knowledge of defense issues. She has become a national voice on the importance of strengthening families through foster care and adoption. She is the state’s senior senator, and a fiscal leader for the nation as a member of the powerful Senate Appropriations Committee. She is a working mother, each day balancing the joys of family life with the responsibilities of being a U.S. Senator.
