    Party Leaders in the United States Congress, 1789-2019

    Party Leaders in the United States Congress, 1789-2019 Valerie Heitshusen Specialist on Congress and the Legislative Process Updated September 4, 2019 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov RL30567 Party Leaders in the United States Congress, 1789-2019 Summary This report briefly describes current responsibilities and selection mechanisms for 15 House and Senate party leadership posts and provides tables with historical data, including service dates, party affiliation, and other information for each. Tables have been updated as of the report’s issuance date to reflect leadership changes. Although party divisions appeared almost from the First Congress, the formally structured party leadership organizations now taken for granted are a relatively modern development. Constitutionally specified leaders, namely the Speaker of the House and the President pro tempore of the Senate, can be identified since the First Congress. Other leadership posts, however, were not formally recognized until about the middle of the 19th century, and some are 20th-century creations. In the earliest Congresses, those House Members who took some role in leading their parties were often designated by the President as his spokesperson in the chamber. By the early 1800s, an informal system developed when the Speaker began naming his lieutenant to chair one of the most influential House committees. Eventually, other Members wielded significant influence via other committee posts (e.g., the post-1880 Committee on Rules). By the end of the 19th century, the formal position of floor leaders had been established in the House. The Senate was slower than the House to develop formal party leadership positions, and there are similar problems in identifying individual early leaders.

Arguing OriginalIntent in Legislative Debate A significant body of literature has examined how the Framers and rati- fiers of the Constitution 2 subsequently viewed the role of original intent in construing the Constitution. The primary focus of these works is how those views should influence today's courts in deciding controversies. 3 A less de- veloped question, however, is how members of the First Congress employed originalist constitutional arguments in making and debating proposed stat- utes.4 This study seeks to contribute to that exploration, not by discussing what the Founders believed about using originalist arguments, but by examin- ing the record of the First Federalist Congress to determine what originalist 5 arguments its members actually made. 1.

The dissertation moves from the operations of violence on the ground to the ideological implications of violence in the era of gradual emancipation.

An ordi- nary mariner, MacDonald belonged to a class of maritime laborers, peo- ple who hoisted sails, stored cargoes, swabbed decks, and followed orders. Dead sailors normally rated scant attention and modest funerals when they died ashore, while death at sea meant burial over the side.

    The Life and Travels of John Bartram (1699-1777), „His Majesty´S Botanist for North America“, and His Sons Isaac, Moses and William

    The Life and Travels of John Bartram (1699-1777), „His Majesty´s Botanist for North America“, and his Sons Isaac, Moses and William Holger Goetzendorff, Pulheim (Alemania) [email protected] John Bartram, a Quaker, came from Derbyshire, England and settled 1681 in America. He had established himself as one of the leaders of the new community of Darby Creek near Philadelphia. He had five children among them William who was the father of the future botanist John. John Bartram John received the average education in a Quaker school. By the time he reached twelve years, his interest developed to ‚Physick ‛ and surgery and later to ‚Botanicks ‛. In 1709 his father William moved to Carolina. There was a lot of trouble between the indians and the white settlers, some of their land had been purchased, but much had simply been taken. 22.9.1711: Indians attacked the area and William was killed. His second wife and the children were taken prisoners for half a year. John Bartram and Mary Maris were maried 1722. Their son Isaac was born in 1724.
