The United States House of Representatives elections in California, 1922 was an election for California's delegation to the United States House of Representatives, which occurred as part of the general election of the House of Representatives on November 7, 1922. The districts were not reapportioned after the 1920 census (California would have gained three districts as a result of the 1920 census), so the state's delegation remained at 11 representatives, and the partisan makeup remained unchanged, at 9 Republicans and 2 Democrats.
