    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).

  • Scavenger Sale Study
    SCAVENGER SALE COOK COUNTY TREASURER MARIA PAPPAS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (Page 1 of 3) 1. The Cook County Treasurer’s Office collects 99.5% of property taxes billed for any given tax year after the Annual Tax Sale is held. Delinquent taxes will be included in a Scavenger Sale only if the property has unpaid taxes for three or more years over a 20-year period. By the time the Scavenger Sale is held, only 0.23% of taxes for any year will be offered at the Scavenger Sale. • Slides 7, 8 2. The purpose of the Scavenger Sale is not to collect delinquent taxes, but it is to find new owners and get the properties back on the tax rolls. Per the Illinois Supreme Court, the Scavenger Sale “assumes that the other available methods of tax collection have been exhausted” and “is designed, as a last resort, to extinguish tax liens and forfeitures and to attempt to restore the property to a productive status.” In re Application of Rosewell (Levin), 97 Ill. 2d 434, 442 (1983). • Slide 9 3. The process to go to deed on a residential property takes more than two and a half years. This lengthy process may discourage participation and bidding at the Scavenger Sale. • Slides 12, 13 4. Properties offered at Scavenger Sales do not generate interest from tax buyers. Over the seven Scavenger Sales from 2007 through 2019, a mere 8,449 properties (5.8%) of 145,030 properties offered were actually sold to private buyers. 136,581 properties (94.2%) were not sold to private buyers.

  • With Illinois Jobs at Risk, Freshman Rep. Melissa Bean Flip-Flops from Campaign Pledge to Oppose NAFTA Expansions, Casts a Deciding CAFTA Vote

Melissa Bean Flip-Flops from Campaign Pledge to Oppose NAFTA Expansions, Casts a Deciding CAFTA Vote Public Citizen Launches CAFTA Damage Report to Track Results of Misguided CAFTA Votes WASHINGTON, D.C. – In a blow to the Illinois working families who campaigned to put her in office in 2004 and in contradiction to a 2004 campaign pledge, Rep. Melissa Bean (D-Ill.) voted in favor of the Central America Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA). Bean cast a deciding vote as the controversial trade agreement eked past the U.S. House of Representatives 217 to 215 on July 27. CAFTA was opposed by all but 15 of the 202 Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives. If Bean had stuck to her pledge to oppose expansion of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), CAFTA would have failed on a 216-216 tie vote. Illinois has been hard hit by NAFTA, which CAFTA expands to six additional countries. U.S. Department of Labor data show that Illinois has lost approximately 17,089 jobs directly linked to NAFTA1 and more than 1,000 workers in Illinois’ 8th district have been certified for assistance under just one narrow NAFTA job-loss program since the passage of NAFTA.2 Given Illinois’ dramatic job loss under NAFTA, Bean was the only Illinois Democrat to support CAFTA. CAFTA also was opposed by the Central

  • Nrcc Illinois Primary Memo To
    NRCC ILLINOIS PRIMARY MEMO TO: INTERESTED PARTIES FROM: NRCC POLITICAL AND NRCC COMMUNICATIONS DATE: FEBRUARY 3, 2010 SUBJECT: ILLINOIS PRIMARY RESULTS The road to putting an end to the Democrats’ reckless agenda began tonight in President Obama’s own backyard. The results of the Congressional primaries in Illinois prove that Republicans are not only poised to successfully defend all of the GOP-held districts in the Land of Lincoln, but we are prepared to run highly aggressive campaigns in several suburban Chicago districts currently held by vulnerable Democrats. With an unacceptably high unemployment rate, a skyrocketing deficit and an out-of-touch agenda, Democrats are on the defensive, and Republicans are well positioned to pick up seats in November. Open Seats: IL-10 (Rep. Mark Kirk, R) Outgoing Rep. Mark Kirk has consistently beaten back Democratic challengers despite this district’s overall Democratic bent, and Robert Dold is in a strong position to repeat Kirk’s success on Election Day. A small business owner, Robert Dold started this race as an outsider, and quickly proved himself as a political force to be reckoned with. As a third-generation native of the Chicago suburbs, Dold brings with him a background in both business and public policy, having served as the investigative counsel for the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee. As the Republican nominee for the suburban Chicago district, Dold is well positioned to carry on the Kirk tradition of being an independent voice for the hardworking families of suburban Chicago. Dold defeated state Rep. Beth Coulson, entrepreneur Dick Green, Arie Friedman and Paul Hamann for the Republican nomination.
