Marikina's at-large congressional district

Marikina's at-large congressional district was a congressional district for Marikina in the Philippines. It was represented in the House of Representatives from 1987 up to its division in 2007.[1] The district was apportioned in 1987, pursuant to the constitution ratified that year, giving the city its own district after having been grouped with neighboring Pasig since 1984.[2] The district was divided into two districts after an amendment to the city's charter was approved on December 15, 2006.[3][4]
