The U.S. House election, 1900 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1900 which coincided with the re-election of President William McKinley.

McKinley's Republican Party gained thirteen seats from the Democratic Party and independents, cementing their majority. A reassertion of Republican control in the Mid-Atlantic was key in the gain of new seats. The fading Populist Party held on to five House seats.
