{{Representative header|state=American Samoa}} '''Eni Fa'aua'a Hunkin Faleomavaega, Jr.''', a [[United States Democratic Party|Democrat]], has served as the [[w:Delegate (United States Congress)|Delegate]] from [[:Category:Members of the U.S. Congress from American Samoa|American Samoa]] to the [[U. S. House of Representatives]] since 1988. ==Record and controversies== {{Congresspedia voting record}} ===Iraq War=== {{Iraq War House record}} ===Support for gun control=== In 1991, Faleomavaega cosponsored H.R. 3104, which sought "To amend title 18, United States Code, to prohibit the importation and the manufacture of firearms designed to accept a silencer, bayonet, grenade launcher, flash suppressor, or folding stock, of certain ammunition feeding devices, and of related devices, and to provide for the imposition of enhanced penalties for the possession or the use of any such item in a crime of violence or in a drug trafficking crime." <ref>[http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c102:H.R.3104: Thomas page on H.R. 3104]</ref> {{Main|U.S. gun legislation}} ===House delegate voting rights=== On January 24, 2007, after Democrats took control of the House following the [[2006 congressional elections]], a rule change was again passed providing delegates and the resident commissioner with limited voting rights. The change allowed delegates and the resident commissioner (4 of 5 of whom were Democrats) to vote on the House floor in the "Committee of the Whole," whereby bills are debated and amendments are added. The rule, however, stipulated that if a delegate's vote was decisive, the committee would disband and a new vote would be taken without the non-voting members.<ref>[http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16750695/ "House delegates may get partial voting rights,"] ''Associated Press'' (via ''MSNBC''), January 22, 2006.</ref> Del. Faleomavaega, who had represented American Samoa in the House since 1989, supported the change by emphasizing that his “territory has the highest per capita casualty rate (in Iraq) in the whole United States.” {{main|Voting rights in the District of Columbia}} ==Bio== Faleomavaega was born August 15, 1959 in Vailoatai Village, and attended Brigham Young University, the University of Houston Law School and the University of California, Berkeley. He served in the United States Army and the United States Army Reserve. Faleomavaega served as the administrative assistant to the American Samoa Delegate, as staff counsel, House Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs, as Deputy Attorney General for the territory of American Samoa and as Lieutenant Governor of American Samoa. ====2006 elections==== No major candidates announced their intentions to contest Faleomavaega’s seat in the November 2006 election.
