As of today (July 16, 2026), Texas's 23rd Congressional District does not have a voting representative in the U.S. House.

The seat became vacant after Tony Gonzales (Republican) resigned on April 14, 2026. The district's congressional offices remain open under the supervision of the Clerk of the House to provide constituent services, but the district currently has no voting member in Congress until a special election is held and the winner is sworn in.

If you were asking about the representative before the vacancy, it was:

Tony Gonzales (Republican) 
House Clerk
+1

If you live in TX-23 and need help with a federal agency (such as the IRS, Social Security, VA, or immigration), you can still contact the district office, which continues to assist constituents during the vacancy.
