San Jose del Monte's at-large congressional district is the sole congressional district of the Philippines in the city of San Jose del Monte and one of seven in the province of Bulacan. It has been represented in the House of Representatives since 2004.[3] San Jose del Monte first elected a single representative city-wide at-large for the 13th Congress following the passage of Republic Act No. 9230 in 2003 which amended the 2000 San Jose del Monte City Charter (Republic Act No. 8797).[4][5] Before 2004, the city was represented in the nation's lower house as part of Bulacan's 4th, Bulacan's 2nd, Bulacan's at-large and Region III's at-large districts.[6] It is currently represented in the 18th Congress by Florida P.
