    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).

    Aug. 15, 2018 The Honorable Pat Roberts The Honorable Mike Conaway Chairman Chairman Senate Committee on Agriculture, House Committee on Agriculture Nutrition & Forestry The Honorable Debbie Stabenow The Honorable Collin Peterson Ranking Member Ranking Member Senate Committee on Agriculture, House Committee on Agriculture Nutrition & Forestry Dear Chairman Roberts, Chairman Conaway, Ranking Member Stabenow, Ranking Member Peterson and Members of the Conference Committee: The National Pork Producers Council, an association of 42 state pork organizations that represents the interests in Washington, D.C., of America’s 60,000 pork producers, writes to express its strong support for the conference committee’s work on a 2018 Farm Bill and, in particular, two provisions in it that will be considered during the panel’s deliberations. Those provisions, one setting up and funding a robust Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD) vaccine bank and the other protecting interstate commerce and prohibiting one state from regulating agricultural practices in other states, are vital to the viability of America’s farmers and ranchers and to their ability to produce safe, affordable food. As you know, FMD is an infectious viral disease that affects cloven-hooved animals, including cattle, pigs and sheep; it is not a food safety or human health threat. Although the disease hasn’t been in the United States since 1929, it is endemic in many parts of the world, and our country is ill-prepared to deal with an outbreak should FMD reach our shores. Without the ability to control the disease through vaccination, U.S. meat and dairy export markets – which would close immediately on confirmation of an outbreak – would remain shuttered indefinitely.

  • The Long Red Thread How Democratic Dominance Gave Way to Republican Advantage in Us House of Representatives Elections, 1964
    THE LONG RED THREAD HOW DEMOCRATIC DOMINANCE GAVE WAY TO REPUBLICAN ADVANTAGE IN U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ELECTIONS, 1964-2018 by Kyle Kondik A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Baltimore, Maryland September 2019 © 2019 Kyle Kondik All Rights Reserved Abstract This history of U.S. House elections from 1964-2018 examines how Democratic dominance in the House prior to 1994 gave way to a Republican advantage in the years following the GOP takeover. Nationalization, partisan realignment, and the reapportionment and redistricting of House seats all contributed to a House where Republicans do not necessarily always dominate, but in which they have had an edge more often than not. This work explores each House election cycle in the time period covered and also surveys academic and journalistic literature to identify key trends and takeaways from more than a half-century of U.S. House election results in the one person, one vote era.

  • Joint Letter Regarding CFTC Reauthorization
    December 7, 2005 The Honorable Bob Goodlatte The Honorable Collin Peterson Chairman Ranking Member United States House of Representatives United States House of Representatives Committee on Agriculture Committee on Agriculture 1301 LHOB 1301 LHOB Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Mr. Chairman and Ranking Member Peterson: The undersigned Associations have serious concerns about the House Agriculture Committee’s draft bill, with the accompanying natural gas amendment, to reauthorize the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). As proposed, the legislation raises significant issues of scope and policy as well as technical issues having potentially substantive consequences on the over-the-counter derivative markets. The proposed legislation would unnecessarily extend CFTC jurisdiction beyond futures and options markets and impose new regulation unwarranted by market events. While the staff of the Agriculture Committee has made a good faith effort to address the Associations’ concerns in a number of areas, we unfortunately must oppose the Committee’s reauthorization bill and the accompanying natural gas amendment in the current form. We respectfully request a postponement of the markup scheduled for Wednesday December 7 in order to work on further revisions to the draft bill. We support, in scope and substance, the fundamental approach to the Zelener issue reflected in the legislation proposed by the President’s Working Group for Financial Markets. We believe, however, that a number of technical changes to the PWG draft legislation are needed. The Committee’s draft bill does not yet reflect any of these changes We are most concerned that the natural gas amendment includes expansive new provisions governing position reporting and market surveillance that raise significant questions of policy, scope, and construction.

  • June 7, 2006 the Honorable Alberto R. Gonzales Attorney General U.S. Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington
    June 7, 2006 The Honorable Alberto R. Gonzales Attorney General U.S. Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20530 Dear Attorney General Gonzales: Democracy 21 believes it is essential that you take all steps necessary to ensure that there is no political interference with the criminal investigations being conducted by the Public Integrity Section of the Justice Department and by U.S. Attorney offices in California concerning political corruption and potential criminal conduct by members of Congress. We strongly urge you to provide assurances to the public, and to the government prosecutors handling these cases, that you will not allow any political interference in these matters. These criminal investigations must be pursued wherever they lead, regardless of any political pressures that might be applied by members of Congress or others to influence the cases. Our concerns about possible political interference in these matters have only been heightened by the reactions of House Judiciary Committee Chairman James Sensenbrenner (R-WI) and other House leaders to the Justice Department’s obtaining of records from the congressional office of Representative William Jefferson (D-LA), pursuant to a court-approved search warrant.
