Legislative districts of Cagayan

The Legislative Districts of Cagayan, namely the first, second and third districts, are the current representations of the province of Cagayan in the Philippine House of Representatives.

The province was divided into two representative districts from 1907 to 1972, with a minor adjustment of district boundaries as mandated by Act No. 3032 enacted on March 19, 1922 taking effect starting in the 1922 elections. Batanes was last represented as part of the province's first district in 1909, after its re-establishment as a province by virtue of Act No. 1952 enacted on May 20, 1909 warranted its separate representation.

Cagayan was represented in the Interim Batasang Pambansa as part of Region II from 1978 to 1984, and elected three representatives at-large to the Regular Batasang Pambansa in 1984. The province was redistricted into three congressional districts under the new Constitution which took effect on February 7, 1987, and elected members to the restored House of Representatives starting that same year.
