Common card · No. 340388

Texas's 27th congressional district of the United States House of Representatives covers the coastal bend of Texas's Gulf Coast consisting of Corpus Christi and Victoria up to Bastrop County near Austin. Its current representative is Republican Michael Cloud. Cloud was elected to the district in a special election on June 30, 2018, to replace former Republican representative Blake Farenthold, who had resigned on April 6. The 27th district was created as a result of the redistricting cycle after the 1980 census. In 2024, the district was reported to be close to 55% Hispanic, down from the 70% Hispanic population in the 2002–2010 cycles when the district reached from Corpus Christi to Brownsville.
