Congressional district of the Philippines

Taguig–Pateros's at-large congressional district was a congressional district for the combined independent local government units of Pateros and Taguig in the Philippines. It was represented in the House of Representatives from 1987 up to its division in 2007. The district was apportioned in 1987, pursuant to the constitution ratified that year, giving the two municipalities their own joint district after having been grouped with Muntinlupa from 1984 to 1986. The district was first represented by Dante Tiñga, followed by its last representative Alan Peter Cayetano. The district was divided into two districts following Taguig's conversion into a highly-urbanized city on December 8, 2004. Electing separate representatives was later administered in 2007.
