A long history exists of various individuals serving in the congressional delegations from the State of Texas to the United States House of Representatives and the United States Senate, with all of this occurring after Texas as a territory was annexed as a State in December 1865.
Texas has a total of thirty-eight seats as of 2024. The current dean of the Texas delegation is Representative Lloyd Doggett (TX-37) of the Democratic Party. He has served in the House since 1995 and is seventy-eight years old.
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. [1] This has resulted in Texas’ maps being a partisan gerrymander, with few competitive districts. [2] [3]
The delegation consists of 38 members, with 25 Republicans and 13 Democrats.

It was also the last election when both major parties increased their share of the popular vote simultaneously, largely due to the disintegration of the American Labor Party and other third parties.
