The 'Eighty-sixth United States Congress' was a meeting of the legislative branch of the United States federal government, comprised of the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives. It met in Washington, DC from January 3 1959 to January 3 1961, during the last two years of the second administration of U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower.
The apportionment of seats in this House of Representatives was based on the Seventeenth Census of the United States in 1950. Both chambers had a Democratic majority.

House of Representatives

The names of members of the House of Representatives elected statewide ''at-large,'' are preceded by an "At-Large," and the names of those elected from districts, whether plural or single member, are preceded by their district numbers.
Many of the congressional district numbers are linked to articles describing the district itself. Since the boundaries of the districts have changed often and substantially, the linked article may only describe the district as it exists today, and not as it was at the time of this Congress.
