Who is my U.S. representative in FL-17?
Your current U.S. Representative for Florida's 17th Congressional District is Greg Steube (Republican). He was reelected in November 2024, defeating Democrat Manny Lopez, and is the incumbent heading into the 2026 election as well. Ballotpedia A couple of notes worth flagging: Florida redrew its congressional district map in a special legislative session in April 2026, signed into law by Governor DeSantis on May 4, so district boundaries may have shifted — worth double-checking your exact address still falls in FL-17 if you're near a border area. Wikipedia The 2026 general election for this seat is scheduled for November 3, 2026, with the primary on August 18, 2026, so this will be up for a vote again soon. Ballotpedia If you want, I can look up his contact info or committee assignments too.

The response correctly identifies Greg (Gregory) Steube as the U.S. Representative for FL-17, matching the ground truth. However, it includes a likely fabricated claim about an April/May 2026 redistricting special session that appears hallucinated.
