    Women in the United States Congress: 1917-2012

    Women in the United States Congress: 1917-2012 Jennifer E. Manning Information Research Specialist Colleen J. Shogan Deputy Director and Senior Specialist November 26, 2012 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL30261 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Women in the United States Congress: 1917-2012 Summary Ninety-four women currently serve in the 112th Congress: 77 in the House (53 Democrats and 24 Republicans) and 17 in the Senate (12 Democrats and 5 Republicans). Ninety-two women were initially sworn in to the 112th Congress, two women Democratic House Members have since resigned, and four others have been elected. This number (94) is lower than the record number of 95 women who were initially elected to the 111th Congress. The first woman elected to Congress was Representative Jeannette Rankin (R-MT, 1917-1919, 1941-1943). The first woman to serve in the Senate was Rebecca Latimer Felton (D-GA). She was appointed in 1922 and served for only one day. A total of 278 women have served in Congress, 178 Democrats and 100 Republicans. Of these women, 239 (153 Democrats, 86 Republicans) have served only in the House of Representatives; 31 (19 Democrats, 12 Republicans) have served only in the Senate; and 8 (6 Democrats, 2 Republicans) have served in both houses. These figures include one non-voting Delegate each from Guam, Hawaii, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Currently serving Senator Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) holds the record for length of service by a woman in Congress with 35 years (10 of which were spent in the House).

    Aug. 15, 2018 The Honorable Pat Roberts The Honorable Mike Conaway Chairman Chairman Senate Committee on Agriculture, House Committee on Agriculture Nutrition & Forestry The Honorable Debbie Stabenow The Honorable Collin Peterson Ranking Member Ranking Member Senate Committee on Agriculture, House Committee on Agriculture Nutrition & Forestry Dear Chairman Roberts, Chairman Conaway, Ranking Member Stabenow, Ranking Member Peterson and Members of the Conference Committee: The National Pork Producers Council, an association of 42 state pork organizations that represents the interests in Washington, D.C., of America’s 60,000 pork producers, writes to express its strong support for the conference committee’s work on a 2018 Farm Bill and, in particular, two provisions in it that will be considered during the panel’s deliberations. Those provisions, one setting up and funding a robust Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD) vaccine bank and the other protecting interstate commerce and prohibiting one state from regulating agricultural practices in other states, are vital to the viability of America’s farmers and ranchers and to their ability to produce safe, affordable food. As you know, FMD is an infectious viral disease that affects cloven-hooved animals, including cattle, pigs and sheep; it is not a food safety or human health threat. Although the disease hasn’t been in the United States since 1929, it is endemic in many parts of the world, and our country is ill-prepared to deal with an outbreak should FMD reach our shores. Without the ability to control the disease through vaccination, U.S. meat and dairy export markets – which would close immediately on confirmation of an outbreak – would remain shuttered indefinitely.

  • Marin & Sonoma Redistricting

    Marin & Sonoma Redistricting

    3:21 PM Subject: Marin & Sonoma Redistricting Date: Tuesday, May 17, 2011 3:12 PM From: Dick Spotswood To: <[email protected]> Conversation: Marin & Sonoma Redistricting DICK SPOTSWOOD * THE SUNDAY MARIN INDEPENDENT JOURNAL A column on government and politics published Sunday, May 14, 2011 #352 © A copyright of the Marin Independent Journal. REDISTRICTING: MARIN & SONOMA’S COMMUNITY OF INTEREST THE ISSUE of California legislative redistricting is rapidly coming to a head. The Citizens Redistricting Commission will announce its first draft of the state's new legislative and congressional district boundaries on June 10. The final version will be released in mid-August. The commission's road show is coming to the North Bay for "public input" on May 20. The session starts at 6 p.m. at Santa Rosa City Hall. Implications for Marin and Sonoma are huge. For decades, the region enjoyed its own Assembly and congressional districts, though its state Senate representation is diluted by inclusion in the gerrymandered San Francisco-dominated 3rd Senate District. Whether you support or oppose Rep. Lynn Woolsey, D-Petaluma, it's hard to deny that she's been accessible and brought home the bacon for Marin and Sonoma. Since Woolsey will likely retire soon, there is legitimate concern about the future of her Sixth District. Most Marin and Sonoma residents concur that there is an historic interest joining the two counties. It's not just their north-of-the-bridge geography, but also a similar suburban-rural culture. Now, with most Marin and Sonoma residents both living and working north of the bay and far fewer commuting to San Francisco, the links are stronger than ever.

  • Joint Letter Regarding CFTC Reauthorization

    Joint Letter Regarding CFTC Reauthorization

    December 7, 2005 The Honorable Bob Goodlatte The Honorable Collin Peterson Chairman Ranking Member United States House of Representatives United States House of Representatives Committee on Agriculture Committee on Agriculture 1301 LHOB 1301 LHOB Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Mr. Chairman and Ranking Member Peterson: The undersigned Associations have serious concerns about the House Agriculture Committee’s draft bill, with the accompanying natural gas amendment, to reauthorize the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). As proposed, the legislation raises significant issues of scope and policy as well as technical issues having potentially substantive consequences on the over-the-counter derivative markets. The proposed legislation would unnecessarily extend CFTC jurisdiction beyond futures and options markets and impose new regulation unwarranted by market events. While the staff of the Agriculture Committee has made a good faith effort to address the Associations’ concerns in a number of areas, we unfortunately must oppose the Committee’s reauthorization bill and the accompanying natural gas amendment in the current form. We respectfully request a postponement of the markup scheduled for Wednesday December 7 in order to work on further revisions to the draft bill. We support, in scope and substance, the fundamental approach to the Zelener issue reflected in the legislation proposed by the President’s Working Group for Financial Markets. We believe, however, that a number of technical changes to the PWG draft legislation are needed. The Committee’s draft bill does not yet reflect any of these changes We are most concerned that the natural gas amendment includes expansive new provisions governing position reporting and market surveillance that raise significant questions of policy, scope, and construction.
