Oregon's 6th congressional district is a congressional district created after the 2020 United States census. It consists of Polk and Yamhill Counties, in addition to portions of Marion, Clackamas, and Washington Counties.[3] It takes in all of urban Salem, the state's capital, as well as the southwestern suburbs of Portland.
The district elected a member of the United States House of Representatives beginning with the 2022 elections.[4] There were originally sixteen candidates that entered in the race, more than for any other congressional seat in the state in 2022.[5][6]
