Who is my U.S. representative in TX-17?

I don't have reliable, up-to-date information about who currently represents Texas's 17th Congressional District, and this is exactly the kind of fact that changes with elections and can shift due to redistricting.

To get the accurate answer, I'd recommend:

1. **House.gov's "Find Your Representative" tool** – Go to https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative and enter your ZIP code. This is the official and most reliable source.

2. **GovTrack.us** – Search for TX-17 to see the current representative along with their voting record.

3. **Ballotpedia** – Offers detailed district information and current officeholder details.

One thing worth double-checking: district boundaries change after redistricting (most recently following the 2020 Census), so if you're trying to figure out *your* representative, using the ZIP code lookup tool is the safest bet to make sure you're looking at the right district.

Is there anything else I can help you with regarding contacting or learning about your representative?
