As the 111th Congress began on January 6, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi swore Congresswoman Virginia Foxx into her third term as Representative of North Carolina’s Fifth Congressional District. In taking the oath of office, Foxx swore to “support and defend” the Constitution of the United States. “Today’s swearing in ceremony was both a solemn privilege and great honor,” Foxx said. “On this historic day I thank God for allowing me to have this opportunity to serve and I thank the people of the Fifth District for sending me back to Washington to represent them in Congress.” Foxx’s daughter Theresa Ozdemir and her granddaughter Rana joined Foxx during the swearing in ceremonies.
