Description
WASHINGTON, D.C. (January 6, 2011) -- The 112th Congress has convened with pro-life forces in a substantially stronger position than during the first two years of President Obama's term--but with adversaries still firmly in control of many key centers of federal policymaking power. On January 5, pro-life Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio) was sworn in as Speaker of the House of Representatives, ending the four-year speakership of pro-abortion Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Ca.). Boehner and pro-life House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) will lead a House in which Republicans will hold a 242-193 seat majority--a shift of 63 seats to the Republicans. All but a handful of the newly elected Republicans are pro-life.
