Michigan's congressional districts since 2013[1]

Michigan is divided into 14 congressional districts, each represented by a member of the United States House of Representatives.[2]

The districts are currently represented in the 114th United States Congress by 5 Democrats and 9 Republicans.

Current districts and representatives

List of members of the Michigan United States House delegation, their time in office, district maps, and the districts' political ratings according to the CPVI. The delegation has a total of 14 members, with 9 Republicans and 5 Democrats.

"Time in office" reflects each member's time since becoming a U.S. Representative, not the member's time since becoming a representative for his current district; redistricting commonly results in a district being moved elsewhere in the state and its representative beginning to represent a different district in the same location. For example, John Conyers' "Time in office" reflects his representation of Detroit-area districts since 1965, ignoring his 1st district's relocation to northern Michigan in 1993 and its replacement by the 13th district.
