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).

  • August 10, 2005 the Honorable Arlen Specter the Honorable Patrick J
    August 10, 2005 The Honorable Arlen Specter The Honorable Patrick J. Leahy Committee on the Judiciary United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 Dear Chairman Specter and Senator Leahy: I am writing to express to you my concern about suggestions that one of John Roberts’ Supreme Court arguments reflects an ideology that leads him “to excuse violence against other Americans.” This assertion is based upon the role that Roberts played as Deputy Solicitor General in 1991 and 1992 in briefing and arguing on behalf of the United States in Bray v. Alexandria Clinic. Such a suggestion is unfair and unwarranted. The question in Bray was whether protests which blocked access to reproductive health clinics and which all agreed violated state civil and criminal trespass laws also violated a provision of the federal Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871. In his briefing and argument before the Supreme Court on behalf of the United States, Roberts argued that a particular provision of the 1871 Act in question only provided remedies against acts directed at a class of people defined by a class characteristic and that did not apply to those motivated by opposition to abortion. I disagreed with the position Roberts argued. But the question was a complex one, prior Supreme Court precedents had taken a narrow view of the provision, and in the end six Justices agreed with Roberts’ basic argument. (In response to Bray, Congress adopted new legislation – the Freedom of Access to Clinics Act – which, unlike the 1871 law, directly addressed the problem of clinic access and provided a more effective cause of action than would have been possible under the 19th Century law interpreted in Bray.) I also fear that some people will be left with the impression that Roberts is somehow associated with clinic bombers.
