The Legislative districts of Bukidnon, namely the first, second, third and fourth districts are the representations of the Province of Bukidnon in the Philippine House of Representatives. Bukidnon was part of the representation of Department of Mindanao and Sulu from 1916 to 1935, it was organized as a lone congressional district thereafter until 1972. From 1978 to 1984 it was part of the representation of Region X, and from 1984 to 1986 it elected 2 assemblymen at-large. In 1986 to 2012, the province was represented by three representatives. In 2013, Bukidnon was redistricted into four congressional districts after the Republic Act 10184, a law reapportioning Bukidnon into four legislative districts, was signed by President Benigno S. Aquino III last September 28, 2012.[1][2]
