 Dead Speakers of the House of Representatives
One of the most important sources of the Speaker's power was his position as Chairman of the Committee on Rules, which, after the reorganization of the committee system in 1880, became one of the most powerful standing committees of the House.
Rayburn's successor, Democrat John William McCormack (served 1962–1971), was a somewhat less influential Speaker, particularly due to dissent from younger members of the Democratic Party.
Nancy Pelosi hence became the Speaker (by a vote of 233-202 over the Republican challenger John Boehner) when the 110th Congress convened on January 4, 2007, making her the first female Speaker in the history of the United States.
