HOUSE GOP BOASTS DIVERSITY AND NEW CONSERVATIVES

[Geee]

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Meet the new House Republicans.

 

There's Mia Love from Utah, the first black Republican woman to serve in the House.

 

At 30, Elise Stefanik of upstate New York is the youngest woman ever elected to Congress.

 

Carlos Curbelo is the son of Cuban exiles in Florida.

 

"We're back with youth, we're back with diversity and we're back with women," Rep. Greg Walden, R-Ore., head of the National Republican Congressional Committee, said after Tuesday's elections, when House Republicans increased their majority to levels not seen in decades.

 

But Republicans also are welcoming some vocal new members on the right; some are replacing more moderate GOP lawmakers who retired. These new members could increase the ranks of tea party conservatives who have created persistent trouble for House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and give him fresh headaches just when he and other GOP leaders are determined to show they can deliver after taking back the Senate.

 

In North Carolina, Mark Walker is a pastor who suggested using fighter jets to deal with illegal immigration. He says his comments were taken out of context and that he was talking about a way to oppose drug cartels.
