Perennial candidate John Kennedy has released another baseless negative attack against Senator Mary Landrieu. Despite distortions by the Kennedy campaign, Sen. Landrieu has been a leader in the Senate fighting for new domestic oil drilling and energy independence: she passed the only bill in the last 25 years that increased domestic drilling, and is working with Democrats and Republicans to open 120 million more acres on the outer continental shelf to drilling — a measure John Kennedy opposes. He has stood up against new drilling, against lowering gas prices and against the interests of Louisiana families. Sen. Landrieu has a long record of supporting domestic oil production. She supports responsible oil shale development, and she voted to create pilot projects to make oil shale technology viable.
