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).

San Diego Public Library TÇÇâtÄ exÑÉÜà 2000/01 The Mission of San Diego Public Library is to . Respond to the information needs of San Diego’s diverse communities. Ensure equal access to local, national and global resources. Anticipate and address the educational, cultural, business and recreational interests of the public. Develop and provide welcoming environments. DIRECTOR’ S MESSAGE Looking back on the past two years reminds me of the many accomplishments we've achieved for the San Diego Public Library. We moved forward on three capital improvement projects, beginning construction on the Mission Valley Branch Library and receiving generous donations from community members to expand both the Point Loma and the La Jolla/Florence Riford Branch Libraries. We held a variety of popular cultural events, from author presentations to concerts; welcomed chil- dren to our libraries and inspired their love of reading and learning; and reached out to the public through community events and media partnerships. Additionally, extended weekday hours were added at seven branches and Sunday hours were added at four. All were signif- icant advancements for the Library as we entered the new millennium. These achievements make us even more excited for the year to come. The new fiscal year also brought great news for the Library system. The new City Council, led by the efforts of Mayor Dick Murphy and Councilmember Jim Madaffer, showed great support for the library system on July 30, 2001, by unanimously voting to transfer $1 million to the newly formed Foundation for San Diego Central and Branch Library System as seed money for fundraising efforts.

Raising Capital
RAISING CAPITAL 1. As Dr. Tina Berger, COO, Prizm Pharmaceuticals told Congresswoman Lynn Schenck, Friday, "Biotech companies need to raise as much as $250 million to bring a new pharmaceutical drug to market." "The money has to come from somewhere, and the only choices are from large pharmaceutical companies or the public market. Both of these sources depend upon profits. When Congress knocks the profitability of drugs and vaccines, they are directly reducing our ability to raise money," she added. 2. At the Biomedical Industry Council meeting,David Hale said that he had just completed a visit with sixty analysts, and every one had asked questions relating to Congress' attack on the pharmaceutical industry. One industry source observed, "Society can't have it both ways - low drug prices and state-of-the-art medicine. Someone has to pay." 3. As a possible direct casualty of the Congress-induced drop in pharmaceutical stock prices, Amy/in Pharmaceuticals Inc cancelled plans for a secondary stock offering of 2.5 million shares. Amylin's share prices have dropped from $14.25 to $11.25 since January. WARD VALLEY 4. The recently formed San Diego County Science Advisory Board heard testimony from WWO and Ken Helms, UCSD Radiation Control Officer regarding Ward Valley and society's need for a Low-level Radioactive Waste (LLRW) disposal site. The Council will send a recommendation to the County Board of Supervisors that the Ward Valley site holds minimum risk to the health and safety of citizens and is greatly superior to on-site storage.

POWER PLAY: HOW THE GOVERNOR’S SISTER MADE A MILLION DOLLARS FROM SEMPRA WHILE BROWN APPOINTEES LET SEMPRA BILK RATEPAYERS FOR BILLIONS by Liza Tucker, Consumer Watchdog Executive Summary Ever since Governor Jerry Brown took office in 2011, energy services holding company Sempra and its regulated subsidiaries have benefitted from decisions by state regulators that favor Sempra’s bottom line over public safety and reasonable utility rates. Under Brown, Sempra’s market capitalization has almost tripled to $28 billion, and its stock price has risen 117 percent.1 Sixty four percent of that increase in capitalization came in the wake of the company naming Brown’s sister Kathleen to its board in 2013. For her service to Sempra, Kathleen Brown has earned more than $1 million in cash, stock and other benefits. The state’s other two investor-owned utilities, Edison International and Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) have also seen growth—but not as spectacular as Sempra’s. Over the past five years, Sempra reports that it has delivered total shareholder returns of 112 percent, compared with 64 percent nationally for the Standard & Poor’s 500 Utilities Index.2 Numerous decisions have helped Sempra stock, including the decision by oil regulators at the Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR) to allow Sempra subsidiary Southern California Gas (SoCalGas) to resume high pressure injections into its giant Aliso Canyon gas storage facility in Los Angeles County after the biggest methane well blowout in U.S. history. The Public Utilities Commission (PUC) concurred in that decision. The Brown Administration’s favoritism toward Sempra, including its willingness to overlook a serious threat to public health at Aliso in allowing the facility to reopen without knowing what caused the blowout and without performing proper seismic and other tests, has protected the company's value while helping Kathleen Brown become a millionaire.
