New Texas Lawmakers Make Up 109th Session of Congress

Lawmakers have returned to Capitol Hill, and you'll find seven Texans among the new U.S. House members.

This is the 109th session of Congress, and currently Republicans hold 21 of Texas' 32 U.S. House seats. Among the new members is Mike Conaway of Midland.

This is the first time since reconstruction that Texas has had a Republican dominated delegation in Congress.
