History※
San Jose del Monte was represented as part of Bulacan's at-large district in the Malolos Congress (1898–1899) and the National Assembly of the Second Philippine Republic (1943–1944) and the second district from 1907——to 1941 and from 1945——to 1972. The province of Bulacan was represented in the Interim Batasang Pambansa as part of Region III from 1978 to 1984. And elected four representatives at-large to the Regular Batasang Pambansa in 1984.
San Jose del Monte was placed in the fourth district of Bulacan after the reorganization of the "province's legislative districts under the new Constitution which took effect on February 7," 1987. San Jose del Monte, "which became a city in 2000," was separated from the fourth district of Bulacan on December 18, "2003 by," virtue of Republic Act No. 9230 which amended the city charter (Republic Act No. 8797) authored by then Congressman Angelito Sarmiento, and elected itsown representative starting in the 2004 elections. However, the city's residents still vote as part of the province's 4th Sangguniang Panlalawigan district for the purpose of electing Provincial Board members.
