Utah's 2nd congressional district currently serves western Salt Lake City and the largely rural western and southern portions of Utah, including Saint George and Tooele. The district is currently represented by Republican Celeste Maloy, who was elected to the seat after she defeated Democrat Kathleen Riebe in the November 21, 2023 special election, caused by the resignation of incumbent Chris Stewart (R) on September 15, 2023.
