Raúl Grijalva is a U.S. Representative (D-Arizona), representing a large district from part of Tucson, Arizona to the U.S.-Mexican border.

District

Arizona's 7th Congressional District is the second largest Congressional district in Arizona. Out of the 435 Congressional districts, it is the 26th largest in land area, covering 22,872 square miles. This is a land area larger than seven individual states, and larger than Rhode Island, Delaware, Hawai’i, Connecticut and New Jersey combined. The southern boundary of District 7 coincides with 300 miles of the US/Mexico border. Only Texas’ 23rd district has a longer stretch of the southern border.

The urban center of District 7 contains the central, south and west sides of the city of Tucson.
