Alabama's 2nd congressional district is a United States congressional district in Alabama, which elects a representative to the United States House of Representatives. It shares most of Montgomery metropolitan area, and includes the city of Mobile, and stretches into the Wiregrass Region in the eastern portion of the state. The district encompasses portions of Clarke and Mobile counties and the entirety of Barbour, Bullock, Butler, Conecuh, Crenshaw, Macon, Monroe, Montgomery, Pike, Russell, and Washington counties. Other cities in the district include Greenville and Troy.
The district is represented by Democrat Shomari Figures, after being elected in 2024.
The 2nd was completely overhauled in advance of the 2024 elections, as a consequence of the United States Supreme Court's decision in Allen v. Milligan, which ordered Alabama to create a second black opportunity district. Following this, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama appointed a special master to create new maps for the state, which resulted in the 2nd joining the 7th as the state's two opportunity districts. Representative Barry Moore's home county of Coffee was drawn out of this district and into the 1st, where he decided to run instead.
