Women in Congress See Fewer Widows Among New Members
Washington reports 19 women in Congress with only three widows of former members. Since 1917 there have been 96 women who served, many winning seats in own right. The shift toward self‑elected or appointed entries began around 1960, reducing widow representation despite notable figures like Margaret Chase Smith and Lindy Boggs.
