Introduction
ELECTION 2012: CHANGES IN CONGRESS
After a long, expensive and whirlwind campaign, a closely divided country voted to retain the status quo:
President Barack Obama was re-elected and the Congress remains split, with Republicans controlling the
House and Democrats controlling the Senate.
In the United States Senate, the Democrats achieved a net gain of two seats. In addition, Angus King, an
Independent elected in Maine, will likely caucus with the Democrats. Only one Senate incumbent lost his
seat: Scott Brown (R) of Massachusetts. The eight new Democratic Senators are: Chris Murphy (CT),
Mazie Hirono (HI), Joe Donnelly (IN), Elizabeth Warren (MA), Martin Heinrich (NM), Heidi Heitkamp
(ND), Tim Kaine (VA), and Tammy Baldwin (WI). The Republicans have three new Senators: Jeff
Flake (AZ), Deb Fischer (NE), and Ted Cruz (TX). The Democrats have 53 Senators and two
Independents who will caucus with them. The Republicans have 45 Senators.
In the House of Representatives, it appears that the Democrats will pick up a handful of seats with
several races to be determined. The Democrats will have at least 50 new members, including eleven from
California, five each from Illinois and Texas, four each from Florida and New York, three from
Washington, and two each from Arizona, New Hampshire and Nevada. The Republicans will have at
least 35 new members, including four from North Carolina, three each from California, Florida, Indiana,
and Texas, and two each from Kentucky, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Pennsylvania. The House will have 234
Republicans and 201 Democrats next year, which is a net pick up of eight for the Democrats.
ABOUT THE 2012 ELECTION GUIDE
K&L Gates is providing this guide to help you better understand and keep track of the changes in
Congress. It provides a starting point for assessing the coming changes in House and Senate Committee
and Subcommittee memberships. The following are included within this guide:
All new Members of Congress are listed alphabetically by state along with links to the campaign websites
which contain biographical information. Outgoing Members of Congress are listed, with the reasons for
their departures.
Complete delegations for each state are included with new Members of the House and Senate highlighted
in yellow to indicate no change in party and their predecessors shown. Seats that switched parties are
highlighted in red for Republican pick-ups, blue for Democratic pick-ups, and green for independent pickups. Races that are too close to call are marked with an asterisk and highlighted gray.
Roster lists for each full Committee and Subcommittee from the departing 112th Congress are included;
with non-returning members lined out and projected full Committee House Chairmen noted.

PUBLIC POLICY AND LAW PRACTICE
For nearly four decades, K&L Gates has helped clients solve their critical legal,
policy, and political problems in the national’s capital—on Capitol Hill, at the
agencies, and in the courts. In August 2012, K&L Gates was ranked among the
top five law firms in the National Law Journal’s Influence 50 survey.
Virtually every sector of the economy is
affected by the government. Fates, futures,
and bottom lines often shift substantially as
a result of governmental decisions. Those
who can shape decisions have a competitive edge. To achieve their goals, companies
and other organizations need timely and
relevant information, and the ability to
identify and access the right government
officials about issues and proposed legislation or regulations that affect them.
Public Policy and Law Team
The Public Policy and Law group has more
than 50 lawyers and policy professionals
with over 500 years of combined experience in federal and state government. Our
bipartisan team members include: two
former Congressmen, a former Governor
and Attorney General of the United States,
and key former Democratic and Republican
counsels and staff to the House and Senate
leadership, Congressional committees and
numerous Members of Congress.
Members of our team have worked in the
Executive Branch and regulatory agencies, including the U.S. Departments of
Commerce, Defense, Energy, Justice, and
Transportation; Central Intelligence Agency,
Federal Communications Commission;
Office of Management and Budget, Office
of the U.S. Trade Representative; Securities
and Exchange Commission, and others.
Members of the Public Policy and Law
group know what makes government tick in
Washington, D.C., as well as in states in key
regions of the country.
“This firm combines access to many
levels of government with a wide industry
sector reach to form a prominent
government relations practice.”
Chambers USA 2012
Knowledge and Experience
Our success is built on a philosophy
that emphasizes a deeply substantive
and teamwork-based approach to public
policy. Our goal is to understand a policy
issue from every direction—substantively
and politically—and to use the collective
knowledge and experience of our team to
help a client achieve its objectives. The
group is well positioned to consider a range
of legislative, regulatory and judicial options
to benefit our clients.
We offer innovative solutions, provide
exceptional service, and deliver extraordinary results. That approach has worked
for nearly four decades, which is why the
Public Policy and Law group has thrived
through eight Administrations and
20 Congresses.
Ethics Guidance
The Public Policy and Law group maintains
an active government ethics counseling
practice to help guide our clients through
the maze of government requirements. The
firm has written the book on government
ethics—“A Guide To Political and Lobbying
Activities”—which includes advice on political fundraising, lobbying disclosure rules,
Congressional and Executive Branch ethics.
Areas of Practice
The Public Policy and Law group
maintains specific practices in a range
of substantive areas:
• Aviation/Airport Policy
• Congressional Investigations
• Defense and Homeland Security
• Environmental Policy
• Energy
K&L Gates has
the largest Policy
practice of any
fully integrated
global law firm.
• Export Compliance
• Federal Funding
• Financial Services
• Fisheries
• Government Contracts
and Procurement
• Government Ethics and Election Law
• Health Care Policy

Services
Public policy and law services include, but
are not limited to, the following:
• Legislative monitoring and advocacy
• Regulatory advocacy
and implementation
• Government procurement
• Appropriations
• Administrative agency advocacy/
grants and loans
• Political, ethics, and campaign
finance counseling
Public Service
The Public Policy and Law group also has
a long and cherished tradition of providing
pro bono representation. Among our most
satisfying representations is our work with
Water Advocates to pass and fund the
Senator Paul Simon Water for the Poor Act
of 2005. More than one billion people currently lack access to clean drinking water,
and each day water-related illnesses kill
3,900 of the world’s children. The Water
for the Poor Act commits the United States
to promoting safe, affordable, and sustainable drinking water and sanitation in the
developing world. A broad, bipartisan team
of professionals from the Public Policy and
Law group worked with Water Advocates
to help draft and pass this legislation. In
addition, the firm has worked to increase
annual federal water aid funding to
$300 million.
