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).

  • A História Oculta Das Mulheres-Maravilha De Bana-Mighdall: Um Estudo De África E Gênero
    A História Oculta das Mulheres-Maravilha de Bana-Mighdall: Um estudo de África e Gênero Savio Queiroz Lima1 Introdução A Mulher-Maravilha tem sido personagem feminina da mitologia do super-herói mais usada como sujeito em trabalhos acadêmicos fora e dentro do Brasil. Não é de se estranhar tal tendência, já que trata-se da mais bem sucedida personagem na mídia e a que obteve mais destaque dentre seus pares. Nem de longe foi a primeira super-heroína nas histórias em quadrinhos, mas certamente a que obteve um trilhar mais elaborado e carregado de informações2. A personagem fundou até mesmo um estilo arquetípico de personagem feminina, bastante copiado, transitando entre performances similares aos seus irmãos super-heróis masculinos, mas com elementos e práticas singulares às representações femininas das marés históricas de sua vivência. Inclusive foram as relações entre os discursos das personagens e de suas vilãs, igualmente mulheres autônomas, ou mesmo de outras personagens coadjuvantes em sua mitologia tão extensa, que lhes conferiu singularidade dentro dos escopos de discursos nessa mídia específica e na chamada superaventura3. Trata-se de mais uma franca abordagem que faço sobre a personagem e compartilho com meus pares acadêmicos, dialogando sempre com pesquisadores específicos do objeto- fonte que são as histórias em quadrinhos e fazendo experimentações com teorias e métodos da historiografia contemporânea e instrumentos de outros campos do conhecimento. Ainda que exista um foco aqui bem preciso, que são os discursos feministas em dois polos diferenciados, faz-se útil debruçar-se sobre termos e conceitos usados nas pesquisas sobre representações nas histórias em quadrinhos.

  • Former Women Members “I’M No Lady, I’M a Member of Congress”
    ★ PART ONE ★ Former Women Members “I’m No Lady, I’m a Member of Congress” women pioneers on capitol hill, 1917–1934 Great triumphs and historic firsts highlight women’s initial foray into national political office. Four years after Jeannette Rankin was elected to the House of Representatives in 1916, women won the right to vote nationally, with the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920. Rebecca Felton of Georgia became the first woman to serve in the U.S. Senate in 1922. That same year, Alice Robertson of Oklahoma became the first woman to preside over the House of Representatives. In 1923, Representative Mae Ella Nolan of California became the first woman to chair a congressional committee. Two other women followed her lead, including Mary Norton of New Jersey, the first woman elected from the East Coast, who would chair four House committees during her quarter-century career. In 1932, Hattie Caraway became the first woman elected to the Senate. Several other women attained prominent committee positions, including Representative Florence Prag Kahn of California, the first woman to serve on the powerful Appropriations Committee. Nevertheless, women were still a distinct minority of the 435 House Members; at their peak during this period, nine served in the 71st Congress (1929–1931). They lacked the power to focus congressional attention on the issues that were important to them. Jeannette Rankin of Montana, a suffragist and peace activist, was the first woman to serve in Congress. painting by sharon sprung, 2004, collection of the u.s. house of representatives Without seniority, and facing institutional prejudices, the early Congress- women viewed leadership positions as an elusive quest.

Modern Campaigning Origins - Hauenstein Center for Presidential Studies - Grand Valley... Page 1 of 3 Modern Campaigning Origins When was the first modern political campaign? This is the question that Karl Rove, the chief political advisor to President George W. Bush, asked himself when he masterminded the campaign strategy that would help Bush become Texas governor (1994, 1998) and U.S. president (2000, 2004). As you will see below, one campaign in particular fascinated Rove and became a model for the modern campaign. IN THE BEGINNING, CANDIDATES DID NOT CAMPAIGN It's hard to imagine nowadays, but there was a time when it was considered poor form for a candidate to campaign openly for the presidency. They did not even attend their own nominating conventions. Historian Alan Brinkley explains how, in the nineteenth century, "The public aloofness of most presidential candidates gave an aura of nonpartisan dignity to the election process and kept alive the vision of the nation's founders of a political world free of parties and factions." Indeed, As late as 1900, when William McKinley ran for reelection as president, it was possible for a candidate to remain almost entirely out of view during the national campaign and allow other party leaders to do virtually all the work of mobilizing voters.
