These are tables of congressional delegations from the State of Texas to the United States Senate and United States House of Representatives.
The current deans of the Texas delegation are Representatives Sheila Jackson Lee (TX-18) and Lloyd Doggett (TX-37), having both served in the House since 1995.
Republicans have complete control of the congressional redistricting process in Texas, as any new maps are drawn and passed by the Republican-held state legislature and signed into law by the Republican governor. This has resulted in Texas’ maps being a partisan gerrymander, with few competitive districts.
The delegation consists of 38 members, with 25 Republicans and 13 Democrats.
