UPDATE: Call her office ... the D.C. # is (202) 224-5824.

After months of hearing that Senator Landrieu is ... (emphasis added)

Senator Landrieu is committed to reforming the health care system and ensuring that all Americans are covered. She is currently reviewing all of the reform proposals, but does not believe that health care reform starts with a public option. Sen. Landrieu supports a predominantly private system that features a federal backup plan that serves as a safety net. This approach is part of the bipartisan Healthy Americans Act, which she has co-sponsored.

As the debate proceeds, Sen. Landrieu is open to compromise in a comprehensive legislative package, and is focused on appropriate consumer protection and patient-centered care.

... we learn that she is one of the four Democrats who hasn't committed to allowing a vote on health care reform in the Senate!

We know that the Senator is "concerned" about the federal deficit, so it is necessary to remind the Senator that the bill that she may keep from hitting the floor for a vote is one that will reduce the deficit by $130 billion, according to the Director of the conservative Congressional Budget Office.

In other words, if she votes to keep this bill from getting a vote, she's voting to increase the deficit.
