Religious affiliation in the United States House of Representatives

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article covers the religious affiliation in the United States House of Representatives.

While the religious preference of elected officials is by no means an indication of their allegiance nor necessarily reflective of their voting record, the religious affiliation of prominent members of all three branches of government is a source of commentary and discussion among the media and public. The topic is also of interest to religious groups and the general public who may appeal to representatives of their denomination on religious or moral issues facing the House of Representatives.

The following list reports the religious affiliation of the members of the United States House of Representatives in the 119th Congress. In most cases, besides specific sources, the current representatives' religious affiliations are those mentioned in regular researches by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life at the Pew Research Center.[1][2]
