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).

Box 84 NAS Patuxent River, MD 20670 (301) 737-6313 [email protected] June 2009 President’s Corner On 16 May, a great time was had by all those who participated in honoring our JROTC Cadets at the Cafe des Artiste in Leonardtown. Not only was the food superb, but our program was also first class. Each of the four cadets who attended the luncheon offered us a short sketch of memorable moments in his or her training experiences. We witnessed poise, dedication, a positive attitude and good humor under fire. As this is one of the finest programs in our calendar year, we know that you will not want to miss the next one in May, 2010. We owe special thanks to LTC Jack Fringer, who coordinates our JROTC awards program for the seven high schools in Calvert and St. Mary's Counties. Our appreciation also to CDR John LeRoy, CDR Tony Blankenship, and CWO5 Joseph Bush for presenting these awards this year, along with Jack Fringer and me. We eagerly look forward to our next Chapter social gathering on 20 June. The details are included in this newsletter My best to all, Evelyn S.
