Composition
Members
The following is a list of current members of the House of Representatives. Néstor A. Alonso Vega resigned from his position after being charged for corruption by federal prosecutors days after the general election, and a special election was held on 21 March 2021 to select his successor from within the New Progressive Party. In addition, while Luis Raúl Torres Cruz was elected under the PPD banner, due to differences with decisions of the party's delegation leadership on policy areas under his purview, on 4 May 2022 Torres Cruz distanced himself from the party, became an independent, and said this move was "final and irrevocable".| District | Name | Political party |
