Arizona's 7th congressional district is acongressional district located in theU.S. state ofArizona. The district stretches along theMexico–United States border and includes the western third ofTucson, parts ofYuma andNogales, as well asAvondale andTolleson inMetro Phoenix. It has been represented byDemocratAdelita Grijalva since November 2025.

Arizona picked up a seventh district after the 2000 census. Situated in the southwestern part of the state, it included all ofYuma County and parts ofLa Paz,Maricopa,Pima,Pinal, andSanta Cruz counties. For all intents and purposes, it was the successor to what had been the2nd district—the former seat of longtime congressmanMo Udall–from 1951 to 2003.

The district was larger thanRhode Island,Delaware,Hawaii,Connecticut andNew Jersey combined.^[4] It included 300 miles of the U.S. border withMexico. It was home to seven sovereign Native American nations: theAk-Chin Indian Community,Cocopah,Colorado River Indian Tribes,Gila River Indian Community,Pascua Yaqui Tribe,Quechan, andTohono O'odham.

After the 2010 census, the old 7th district essentially became the3rd district, while the 7th was redrawn to take in most of the old4th district.

Arizona's 7th district was redrawn to include much of the 3rd district, under a configuration similar to its 2003–13 incarnation. It covers parts ofPima,Yuma,La Paz,Cochise, andMaricopa counties.

For the118th and successive Congresses (based on redistricting following the2020 census), the district contains all or portions of the following counties and communities.^[5]
