List of United States Representatives from South Dakota

The following is an alphabetical list of members of the United States House of Representatives from the state of South Dakota. For chronological tables of members of both houses of the United States Congress from the state (through the present day), see United States Congressional Delegations from South Dakota. The list of names should be complete (as of January 3, 2015), but other data may be incomplete.
