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).

  • Legislative Wrap-Up 2021
    MDRTL State Legislative Advocacy 2021 Maryland General Assembly “Legislative Wrap-Up” Maryland Right to Life (MDRTL) has been the leading voice on pro-life policy in Maryland for nearly 50 years. We mobilize public policy campaigns and lobby on behalf of those whose lives are threatened and cannot defend themselves. With the help of our supporters and volunteers throughout the state, MDRTL has successfully defended against 30 legislative threats to life, provided testimony on 60 bills and sent over 17,000 constituent letters supporting life during the 2021 state legislative session. LEGISLATIVE ACTIONS - On April 12, 2021 the 441st session of the Maryland General Assembly came to a close. The session posed particular challenges to freedom of speech and public participation because of Covid-19 virus related restrictions. In all, lawmakers introduced 2,362 bills and resolutions. Through the proven strength of the organization, MDRTL was able to effectively discourage legislative support for the reintroduction of the Physician Assisted Suicide bill or the introduction of any abortion amendments to the Constitution of the State of Maryland in 2021. MDRTL’s dedicated lobbyist provided testimony against 53 bills that posed a threat to life. Of those bills, MDRTL was successful in helping to defeat 30 problem bills. MDRTL also was successful in soliciting a sponsor for the introduction of two pro-life bills, the Abortion- Inducing Drug Risk Protocol Act and the Nondiscrimination in Health Care Coverage Act. MDRTL supported the bill process from start to finish, recruiting and coordinating panels of expert witnesses from leading organizations including the American Center for Law and Justice, Americans United for Life, the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the Discovery Institute’s Center on Human Exceptionalism and the Maryland Coalition of Medical Pregnancy Clinics.

  • February 15, 2019 Mr. Paul A. Peditto
    February 15, 2019 Mr. Paul A. Peditto Maryland Department of Natural Resources Wildlife and Heritage Service 580 Taylor Avenue, E-1 Annapolis, MD 21401 Dear Mr. Peditto: We are writing to you to request that the Maryland Department of Natural Resources reinstate the "Suburban Archery Hunting Corridor" and remove the 15-deer bag limit that now constrains hunters. Several of us wrote to you last year expressing our opposition to the bag limit change and, as you are aware, Montgomery County is experiencing the effects of a serious overpopulation of deer. Deer collisions continue to cost our residents thousands of dollars in property damage and also pose health and safety risks. Our agricultural community sustains crop loses each year because of deer foraging their fields. Homeowners are frustrated by the deer ruining their landscaping. We are also well aware of the debilitating effects of Lyme Disease caused by the deer tick. The number of reported cases of Lyme disease continues to grow with the growing population of deer in our area. Our specific concerns pertain to the current 15 deer bag limits for bow hunters. We support the reestablishment of the Suburban Deer Archery Zone (Zone) and an unlimited bag limit for antlerless deer in the Zone. Suburban counties such as Montgomery County should not be subject to the 15 deer bag limit which is designed to increase deer herds in Maryland’s rural counties. We also support an increase in the antlered deer bag limit from the current 2 deer limit to 6 antlered deer in the Zone. Every effort should be made to humanely reduce the deer population in Maryland.
