The 2024 United States House of Representatives elections in New York were held on November 5, 2024, to elect the 26 U.S. representatives from the State of New York, one from each of the state's 26 congressional districts. The elections coincided with the 2024 U.S. presidential election, as well as other elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate, and various state and local elections. The primary elections were held on June 25, 2024.
Democrats flipped three seats held by Republicans, and a total of four from the previous election (one of which they flipped in a special election earlier in 2024), despite the concurrent presidential election in the state swinging the most towards Republicans of any state in the nation.
2020–2024 redistricting process
Following the 2020 census, New York lost one congressional seat and its Independent Redistricting Commission (I.R.C.) attempted to draw a new map. However, they could not reach an agreement on the map, and the Democratic-dominated New York State Legislature drew their own new Congressional map. In April 2022, in the lead-up to the 2022 midterms, the New York State Court of Appeals struck down the map as an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander that failed to follow the proper procedures. The Court then appointed an Independent Special Master to create a new map.
In the 2022 House election in New York, under the new map, the Republican Party flipped three seats, bringing the new seat count of 15 for the Democrats and 11 held by Republicans. In March 2023, New York Democrats challenged the new map, deeming it incorrect for the Court to draw the map, claiming that the job lies solely with the Legislature and I.R.C. In July 2023, an intermediate appeals court ruled that the I.R.C. must create another new map for the 2024 House elections. The New York State Republicans challenged the ruling to the Court of Appeals, who ruled on December 12, 2023, that the maps must be redrawn by the legislature and I.R.C. for the 2024 elections. On February 27, 2024, the New York State Legislature voted to reject the bipartisan map and instead favored redrawing the map for Democrats. On February 28, 2024, the state legislature passed a new map, resulting in the 3rd, 18th, and 22nd congressional districts becoming more Democratic, while the 1st became more Republican. The map was signed by Governor Kathy Hochul on the same day.

The incumbent was Republican George Santos, who flipped the district and was elected with 53.76% of the vote in 2022.

On May 10, 2023, Santos was arrested on federal charges of fraud and money laundering.
On November 16, 2023, in light of the House Ethics Committee report finding that there was "substantial evidence" that he "violated federal criminal laws," Santos announced that he would no longer be seeking re-election. On December 1, Santos was expelled from Congress.
On February 13, 2024, former U.S. Representative Tom Suozzi defeated Republican nominee Mazi Melesa Pilip in the special election to finish Santos's term. He won election to a full term in November by 3.6%, defeating Mike LiPetri.
