Public Service Commission Dist. #1 SAMPLE BALLOT AT www.sos.louisiana.gov With Mary Landrieu back in the Senate next year, Louisiana starts from strength. Not from scratch Day in, day out, Senator Mary Landrieu helps shape Louisiana’s future through the battles she fights – and the fights she wins: for jobs and economic development, education reform, a strong national defense, affordable health and property insurance, better trans- portation, troop safety, veterans services, stronger levees, coastal protection, agriculture, local law enforcement and national energy independence. Few Senators get more done for their states. In one day last year, she won $12 bil- lion for Louisiana defense jobs, housing, port and levee improvements. That’s why Senator Landrieu has been rated one of the most effective members of the U.S. Senate by the nonpartisan Congress.org. Louisiana is in the process of losing about half of its Congressional seniority this year because of U.S. House retirements. That makes Mary Landrieu’s Senate seniority more important to Louisiana than ever. Her position on key Senate committees – Appropriations, Energy and Natural Resources, Homeland Security and Small Business – are crucial to Louisiana’s future. Effectiveness. Seniority. Independence.

Hurricane protection: with flood gates to keep storm surges out of the entire Lake Pontchartrain basin, restoration of the Louisiana wetlands, and strong levees. Jim will fight to get the funds and support this region deserves, so we can build our communities with confidence. Lowering gas prices: by requiring oil companies to help develop alternative fuels, and by increasing domestic oil drilling. Get the economy back on track: by strengthening the housing market, making quality health care affordable and accessible for all, and creating more good-paying jobs in Louisiana.
