The U.S. House election, 1974 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1974 that occurred in the wake of the Watergate scandal, which had forced President Richard M. Nixon to resign in favor of Gerald Ford. This scandal allowed the Democratic Party to make large gains in the House election, taking 49 seats from the Republican Party and increasing their majority above the two-thirds mark.

Notable freshmen included future Senators and presidential candidates Paul Tsongas (D-Mass.), Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), and Christopher Dodd (D-Conn.).

Future President Bill Clinton was the Democratic nominee for a seat in Arkansas, but lost.
