At a press conference at the new Capitol Visitors' Center, Sens. John Tester, D-Mont., and David Vitter, R-La., primary sponsors of the letter, said today that they would use the letter to persuade Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., majority leader, and Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ken., to put the NFIP long-term extension bill on the floor as soon as time permits.
