110th United States Congress - wikipedia 110th United States Congress 110th United States Congress 109th ← → 111th United States Capitol ( 2007 ) January 3, 2007 -- January 3, 2009 Senate President Dick Cheney ( R ) Senate Pres. pro tem Robert Byrd ( D ) House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ( D ) Members 100 senators 435 representatives 5 non-voting delegates Senate Majority Democratic ( coalition ) House Majority Democratic Sessions 1st : January 4, 2007 -- December 19, 2007 2nd : January 3, 2008 -- January 3, 2009 The One Hundred Tenth United States Congress was a meeting of the legislative branch of the United States federal government, between January 3, 2007, and January 3, 2009, during the last two years of the second term of President George W. Bush. It was composed of the Senate and the House of Representatives. The apportionment of seats in the House was based on the 2000 U.S. Census. The Democratic Party controlled a majority in both chambers for the first time since the end of the 103rd Congress in 1995. Although the Democrats held fewer than 50 Senate seats, they had an operational majority because the two independent senators caucused with the Democrats for organizational purposes. No Democratic - held seats had fallen to the Republican Party in the 2006 elections. Democrat Nancy Pelosi became the first woman Speaker of the House. The House also received the first Muslim ( Keith Ellison ) and Buddhist ( Hank Johnson and Mazie Hirono ) members of Congress.

President Bush delivered the 2007 State of the Union Address on January 23, 2007 President Bush delivered the 2008 State of the Union Address on January 28, 2008 Support for the Iraq war Following President Bush 's 2007 State of the Union Address, Congress debated his proposal to create a troop surge to increase security in Iraq. The House of Representatives passed a non-binding measure opposing the surge and then a $ 124 billion emergency spending measure to fund the war, which included language that dictated troop levels and withdrawal schedules. President Bush, however, vetoed the bill as promised, making this his second veto while in office. Both houses of Congress subsequently passed a bill funding the war without timelines, but with benchmarks for the Iraqi government and money for other spending projects like disaster relief.
