Women have long fought to gain a foothold in the United States Congress. The first woman elected to Congress was in 1916, and more than 420 women have served in either the Senate or the US House of Representatives since.
With the exception of Vice President Kamala Harris, the women on this list make up not just some of the most influential female members of Congress but also some of the most recognizable women in politics.
Although everyone wants to achieve a rank on a popular committee or introduce an influential bill, only a few women have had the good fortune of doing so in recent years.
...we can look at the most influential women currently serving in the House of Representatives and the United States Senate and their most significant accomplishments.
