Fourth District
District 4 includes the southern half of the coastal counties, including Coos, Curry, Douglas, Lane, and Linn counties and most of Benton and Josephine counties.
Following the 2010 census, the district boundaries were changed slightly to add some parts of Grants Pass from the 2nd district.
The district has been represented by Democrat Peter A. DeFazio since 1987.
