El Partido Demócrata obtuvo la mayoría en ambas cámaras, dándoles el control total del Congreso por primera vez desde el 103º Congreso en 1993, que también fue la última vez que controlaron la Cámara.
Oficialmente en el Senado había 49 demócratas, 49 republicanos y dos independientes , pero debido a que ambos independientes se reunieron con los demócratas, esto les dio a los demócratas una mayoría operativa. Ningún escaño ocupado por los demócratas había caído en manos del Partido Republicano en las elecciones de 2006 . [2]
La demócrata Nancy Pelosi se convirtió en la primera mujer presidenta de la Cámara . [3] La Cámara también recibió a los primeros miembros musulmanes ( Keith Ellison ) [4] [5] y budistas ( Hank Johnson y Mazie Hirono ) [6] del Congreso.
Grandes eventos
Los miembros debatieron iniciativas como el Plan de las 100 horas de los demócratas y el aumento de tropas de la guerra de Irak de 2007. [7] [8] [9]
Apoyo a la guerra de Irak
Tras el discurso sobre el estado de la Unión del presidente Bush en 2007 , el Congreso debatió su propuesta de crear un aumento de tropas para aumentar la seguridad en Irak. La Cámara de Representantes aprobó una medida no vinculante que se opone al aumento y luego un $ medida de gastos de emergencia 124 mil millones para financiar la guerra, que incluye un texto que dictó el número de soldados y horarios de abstinencia. El presidente Bush, sin embargo, vetó el proyecto de ley como prometió, lo que lo convirtió en su segundo veto mientras estaba en el cargo. Posteriormente, ambas cámaras del Congreso aprobaron un proyecto de ley que financia la guerra sin plazos, pero con puntos de referencia para el gobierno iraquí y dinero para otros proyectos de gasto, como ayuda en casos de desastre .
