United States Congressional Delegations From New York
These are tables of congressional delegations from New York to the United States Senate and United States House of Representatives.
Over the years, New York has demographically changed so that it is hard to consider each district to be a continuation of the same numbered district before reapportionment. For example, Carolyn Maloney has represented the 14th District since 1993, but is considered the successor of S. William Green since the current 14th takes up nearly all of the former territory of the 15th District as it existed before 1993.

“I do not look upon these United States as a finished product. We are still in the making.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1954)
“Of all the nations in the world, the United States was built in nobody’s image. It was the land of the unexpected, of unbounded hope, of ideals, of quest for an unknown perfection. It is all the more unfitting that we should offer ourselves in images. And all the more fitting that the images which we make wittingly or unwittingly to sell America to the world should come back to haunt and curse us.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“A little group of willful men, representing no opinion but their own, have rendered the great government of the United States helpless and contemptible.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
“We didn’t want any men in our group. They drink their loans, they don’t work their stores. Why should we have to pay for their irresponsibilities?”
—Brachiate Guioth De Espinosa, Colombian storekeeper. As quoted in the New York Times, p. A6 (July 15, 1994)
