The district has been represented by Republican Will Metcalf since November 4, 2014, upon his re-election to the Texas House in a special election after the prior representative, Brandon Creighton, was elected to the Texas Senate.[1]
As a result of redistricting after the 2020 Federal census, from the 2022 elections the district encompasses the northern portion of Montgomery County. Major cities in the district include all of Cut and Shoot, Montgomery and Panorama Village, and the majority of Conroe.[2]
