New Nickels

Today the U.S. Mint unveiled a new design for the back of the nickel. The coins are going to celebrate the 201st anniversary of the Louisiana Purchase. A subsequent coin will commemorate the Lewis and Clark expedition. In 2006, the nickels revert back to a Monticello theme.
With all this change in progress, my question is: Why haven’t they redesigned the $1 bill to match the other currency?
