The 'Sixty-seventh United States Congress' was a meeting of the legislative branch of the United States federal government, comprised of the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives. It met in Washington, D.C. from March 4, 1921 to March 3, 1923, during the first two years of the administration of U.S. President Warren G. Harding.
The apportionment of seats in this House of Representatives was based on the Thirteenth Census of the United States in 1910. Both chambers had a Republican majority.

At this time, most Senators were elected by the state legislatures every two years, with one-third beginning new six year terms with each Congress. A few senators were elected directly by the residents of the state.
The names of members of the House of Representatives elected statewide on the general ticket or otherwise ''at-large,'' are preceded by an "A/L," and the names of those elected from districts, whether plural or single member, are preceded by their district numbers.
Many of the congressional district numbers are linked to articles describing the district itself. Since the boundaries of the districts have changed often and substantially, the linked article may only describe the district as it exists today, and not as it was at the time of this Congress.
