Current members of the United States Congress

Gender

As of 2007, 83.7% of Congress is male and 16.3% is female.^[4] The global average for female representation at the parliamentary level in 2007 was 17.0%.^[5] Jeannette Rankin was the first woman elected to Congress, in 1916. Women could not vote or be elected in most of the United States until the Nineteenth Amendment was ratified in 1920. Rebecca Felton was the first woman to become a Senator in 1922, serving for a brief two-day period when she was appointed to fill a vacancy left by Georgia Senator Thomas E. Watson. The first woman to win a race for Senate was Hattie Caraway, who won a special election in January 1932 to fulfill her late husband's Senate term of office. Caraway subsequently won the scheduled November 1932 election, eventually serving two more full terms. In the 109th United States Congress, there were 70 women serving the U.S. House and 14 in the U.S. Senate, which was the highest number of women to hold Congressional office in the United States at one time.^[6] Those numbers went up in the 110th Congress, with 74 women in the House^[7] and 16 in the Senate.^[8]

Sexual Orientation

There are two openly gay members of Congress. There is one gay man in the House (Barney Frank) and one lesbian woman (Tammy Baldwin).

Occupational background

Senators come from a variety of occupational backgrounds. Fifty-six hold degrees in the law, of whom forty-nine actually practiced law. Nineteen are career politicians, having pursued no other career for any significant period of time. A number come from various business backgrounds and seven have MBAs. There are four doctors serving in the Senate: two M.D.'s and two veterinarians. There are two career military members (both Navy). The remaining senators held positions ranging from blacksmith to social worker.

Race/ethnicity

See also: African Americans in the United States Congress

The Senate is 1% African American and the House is approximately 9.2% African American.^{[update needed]}. Representation of Hispanics is somewhat complex. Hispanics represent over 14% of the U.S. population, while the Senate is 3% Hispanic and the House is approximately 5% Hispanic. Considering that Hispanics make up only 4% of American voters, Hispanic political incorporation has been relatively high compared with previous immigrant groups. The Congressional Hispanic Caucus [3] has 21 members. Joseph Marion Hernández, a Cuban American, was the first Hispanic in Congress. He was a Whig Party territorial representative for Florida in 1823. The first to represent a state was Romualdo Pacheco, who represented California in 1877. In 1929, Octaviano Ambrosio Larrazolo became the first Hispanic to be elected to the United States Senate. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, a Cuban American first elected in 1989, was the first Hispanic woman in Congress. Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders also have a high level of political incorporation in terms of their actual voting population. But, as a result this group's historically low voting rates, overall political incorporation of the general population is relatively low. Although the population of this group has increased in size by 600% in 30 years due to immigration, heavy naturalization and voter outreach efforts have provided this primarily foreign-born community with less than 1% of voters but 1.25% of congressional population. However, since they represent 4.4% of the total population in the United States, this 1.25% still represents less than 1/3rd of the total Asian American and Pacific Islander population. There are four Asian Americans or Pacific Islanders in the House and two in the Senate. Dalip Singh Saund was the first Asian American in Congress. Hiram Fong, who served three decades in the Senate, remains the sole Chinese American member to have ever served in the U.S. Senate. Daniel Inouye was the first Japanese American in the House and later the first in Senate. Patsy Mink was the first Asian American woman in Congress. Compared with the primarily European American, African American, Latino, and Asian/Pacific American communities, American Indians, comprising 0.8% of the population, are under-represented, leaving Tom Cole as the only registered American Indian currently in the House. Currently there is one foreign-born U.S. Senator, Mel Martinez of Florida, who was born in Cuba. There are eight current representatives who were born overseas — three from Cuba and one each from Mexico, Japan, Taiwan, the Netherlands, and Hungary — who in total comprise 1.8% of the House. This figure does not include three members who were born overseas to U.S. citizen parents.
