Timeline

1943

Kay Bailey Hutchison (born Kathryn Ann Bailey; July 22, 1943) is an American attorney, television correspondent, politician, diplomat, and was the 22nd United States Permanent Representative to NATO from 2017 until 2021.

1962

She received her Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Texas at Austin in 1962 (age 19).

She was also a member of the Pi Beta Phi Sorority.

1967

She received her J.D. degree from the University of Texas School of Law in 1967 (age 24).

Following her graduation from law school, she was the legal and political correspondent for KPRC-TV in Houston.

Hired by Ray Miller, host of the long-running The Eyes of Texas anthology series, Hutchison was among the first on-screen newswomen in Texas.

1972

She was a member of the Texas House of Representatives from 1972 to 1976.

In 1972 (age 29), Hutchison was elected to the Texas House of Representatives from a district in Houston.

1976

She served until 1976.

She was vice-chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board from 1976 to 1978.

1982

She was a candidate for the United States House of Representatives in 1982 for the Dallas-based 3rd District, but was defeated in the primary by Steve Bartlett.

She temporarily left politics and became a bank executive and businesswoman.

1984

In April, the Dallas Morning News reported that Hutchison had repeated her pledge to serve only two terms in the U.S. Senate, if elected, and had also said term limits ought to cover all senators, including Senator Phil Gramm (Republican), who had been elected in 1984 and re-elected in 1990.

1990

After a brief business career, she returned to politics in 1990, when she was elected Texas State Treasurer.

Hutchison was elected Texas State Treasurer in 1990 and served until June 1993 when she ran against Senator Bob Krueger in a special election to complete the last two years of Lloyd Bentsen's term.

1993

A member of the Republican Party, she was a United States Senator from Texas from 1993 to 2013.

Born in Galveston, Texas, Hutchison is a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin.

Prior to entering politics, she was an attorney and legal correspondent at KPRC-TV in Houston.

In 1993, she was elected to the United States Senate in a non-partisan special election, defeating Democratic incumbent Bob Krueger and becoming the first female senator in Texas history.

Bentsen had resigned in January 1993 to become Secretary of the Treasury in the Clinton administration.

Krueger had been appointed by Texas Governor Ann Richards to fill the seat until a replacement was elected.

A field of 24 candidates sought to fill Bentsen's unexpired term in the May 1993 special election.

The top two vote-getters were Hutchison (593,338, or 29 percent) and Krueger (593,239, also 29 percent).

During the campaign Krueger charged that Hutchison was a "country club Republican" and insensitive to the feelings of minorities.

In January, the Houston Chronicle reported that both Hutchison and Fields had promised to serve a maximum of two six-year terms in the Senate as part of her support for term-limit legislation for members of Congress.

Following Hutchison's election in 1993, Texas had two sitting Republican U.S. senators for the first time since Reconstruction, something that would remain through the end of Hutchison's tenure in the Senate.

On June 10, 1993, Travis County authorities, led by Democratic District Attorney Ronnie Earle, raided Hutchison's offices at the State Treasury.

1994

After being re-elected to the Senate in 1994, 2000, and 2006, Hutchison was an unsuccessful candidate for Governor of Texas in 2010, losing the Republican primary to incumbent Rick Perry.

2002

(He would stay in the Senate until 2002.) The term-limits legislation never passed, and Hutchison said that she would not leave the Senate in the absence of such legislation, because doing so unilaterally would hurt Texas at the expense of other states in the seniority-driven institution.

After the initial voting, most of the Barton and Fields voters switched to Hutchison, who won the run-off, 1,188,716 (67.3 percent) to 576,538 (32.7 percent).

Lower turnout in the run-off resulted in a decrease in Krueger's vote total, by 17,000.

Hutchison became the first woman to represent Texas in the U.S. Senate.

2013

Hutchison was the most senior female Republican senator by the end of her tenure in 2013, and the fifth most senior female senator overall.

In 2013, she joined the law firm Bracewell & Giuliani.

The downtown Dallas convention center is named after her.

2017

On June 29, 2017, Hutchison was nominated by President Donald Trump to be the next United States Permanent Representative to NATO.

She was confirmed by the U.S. Senate in a voice vote on August 3, 2017.

Hutchison was born Kathryn Ann Bailey in Galveston, the daughter of Kathryn Ella (née Sharp) and Allan Abner Bailey, Jr., an insurance agent.

She has two brothers, Allan and Frank.

Hutchison grew up in La Marque, Texas.
