Pasay's at-large congressional district

Pasay's at-large congressional district is the sole congressional district of the Philippines in the city of Pasay. It has been represented in the House of Representatives of the Philippines since 1987 and earlier in the Batasang Pambansa from 1984 to 1986.[3] Pasay first elected a single representative city-wide at-large for the Regular Batasang Pambansa following the 1984 Philippine constitutional plebiscite that amended the 1973 constitution and abolished the regional at-large assembly districts.[4] Before 1973, the city was represented in the national legislatures as part of Rizal's 1st congressional district. The district was re-created on February 2, 1987 following the ratification of the 1987 constitution that restored the House of Representatives.[5] It is currently represented in the 18th Congress by Antonino G. Calixto of the PDP–Laban.[6]
