2026 House of Representatives Election (PaxAmericana)

The 2026 United States House of Representatives Election was an election for the United States House of Representatives which occurred in the middle of President Joe Biden's second term. The Democratic Party lost a net of 18 seats to the Republicans. The Republicans increased their majority by a larger than expected margin, gaining the largest majority of any party since 1992. The larger than expected loss for the Democratic Party was attributed to backlash against the United States' response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the Biden administration's unpopular seasonal masking and vaccination policies.
