Freshman Dems turn to women to lead, as GOP looks away

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Jan. 15, 2019

The House's newly inaugrated Democrats are bringing droves of women to their leadership teams, with freshman Democrats more than three times as likely as freshman Republicans to hire a woman as their chief of staff.

So far, 49 percent of Democratic freshman representatives have hired women as their chiefs of staff, according to LegiStorm data. Among older Democratic representatives, 38 percent have female chiefs.

While 30 percent of returning GOP representatives employ female chiefs, only 15 percent of Republican freshman have done the same.

The freshman Democrats were also more likely to hire female legislative directors, communications directors and press secretaries than were both Republican freshmen and returning members of both parties.
