As she walks out of the State treasurer's office, Mary Landrieu leaves a legacy that few elected officials can match." Iris Kelso, senior political writer; New Orleans Times­ Picayune January 16, 1996 On October 2 I, I 995, Mary Landrieu came within 6900 votes-less than 1% --Of making the run-off for governor of Louisiana. Landrieu's $3.8 million reform candidacy came close to winning despite being subject to an all-out attack by the old line political establishment and despite a highly splintered Democratic field. Thre e months later, Landrieu, who in I 987 was the youngest woman ever elected to statewide office in Louisiana, ended her eight years as Louisiana State Treasurer, which had been preceded by eight years in the State Legislature. Now, Landrieu, who leads in the polls for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Democrat J. Bennet Johnston, is poised to be the first female Senator elected from the State of Louisiana. MARY LANDRIEU "Her record is impressive." New York Times, 7/6/94 Editorials both inside and outside of Louisiana have praised Mary Landrieu as "an agent for change," Shreveport Times, 9113/95 ; "the most credible reform candidate," The New Republic, 8/21/95; "a remedy to good ol' boy politics," New Orleans Times-Picayune, 9116195; "intelli gent, independent, and a proven advocate for the inclusion of women and minorities at every level (of state government)," New Orleans Tribun e, 10/12/95; one candidate who "offers solid solutions for education," Lake Charles American Press, 7/28/95; with a "solid reputation for personal integrity," New Orleans Times-Picayune, 1196. As a Legislator in the ·1980's, she put women and children's issues on the front burner long before "family .values" became a popular concern for politicians, (New Orleans Times-Picayune, 1196). She was an advocate for women, children, the disabled, and others whose voices tend to be ignored, (New Orleans Tmes-Picayune, 9116195). Her legislative record was one of "putting Louisiana's people and families first," Shreveport Journal, 10/6/95. She pushed through tough child support laws and measures to protect abused women, (N.O.

    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).

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

  • Katrina: a Man- Made Disaster by Michael Grunwald
    Back to Article Click to Print Wednesday, Nov. 24, 2010 Katrina: A Man- Made Disaster By Michael Grunwald It's been five years since the levees broke and New Orleans drowned, since an unremarkable storm left behind unspeakable horrors. Five years since those indelible images of corpses floating in ditches and families screaming on rooftops, since that nauseating frenzy of buck-passing and blame-shifting. It was a heckuva job all around. It took a while, but the prevailing narrative is finally starting to reflect that Katrina was a man-made disaster, not a natural disaster, triggered by shoddy engineering, not an overwhelming hurricane. Even the stubborn generals of the Army Corps of Engineers eventually admitted the "catastrophic failure" of the city's defenses. Now the U.S. is spending $15 billion to build sturdier flood walls and stronger pumps in smarter locations; the Army Corps even shut down the misbegotten Mississippi River Gulf Outlet, a little- used navigation canal that intensified Katrina's surge and ushered it into New Orleans. (Watch TIME's video "Reckoning With a Manmade Disaster.") The good news is that the city is somewhat less vulnerable than it was five years ago. It still isn't ready for the Big One, but it should be able to handle a glorified near miss like Katrina. The bad news is that America still hasn't learned the deeper lessons of the 2005 hurricane. Bad weather and worse engineering were just the immediate causes of the tragedy, like the assassination of the archduke that launched World War I, but not the underlying causes.

CC 73 and the Birth of the Modern Louisiana Two- Party System Wayne Parent* Jeremy Mhire** The 1973' Louisiana Constitutional Convention ("CC 73") happened at a significant moment in Louisiana's political history. It occurred at precisely the same time that Louisiana's present competitive two-party system was born. While the emergence of a two-party system in Louisiana was slow, even when compared to those of the other formerly Democratic dominant states in the Deep South, it was dramatic and has had lasting effects. CC 73 helped define the coalitions that formed the basis of our present competitive two-party system. This article will first place the constitutional convention into the temporal context of this dynamic political period in Louisiana and the American South. Then it will describe how the specific coalitions that formed in the convention became concrete precursors to our present party system and speculate on the difference it has made to present day Louisiana politics.
