Bulacan's 4th congressional district is one of the seven congressional districts of the Philippines in the province of Bulacan. It has been represented in the House of Representatives since 1987.[3] The district consists of the city of Meycauayan and adjacent municipalities in southern Bulacan, namely Marilao and Obando.[4] It is currently represented in the 19th Congress by Linabelle Villarica of the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas (PFP).[5][6]
