California's 10th congressional district is a congressional district in the U.S. state of California. Currently, the 10th district encompasses an area of the northern San Joaquin Valley.

Jeff Denham, a Republican and former State Senator, has represented the district since January 2013.

The district consists of Stanislaus County, and portions of San Joaquin County. It is centered on Modesto. Cities in the district include Oakdale, Manteca, Modesto, Tracy, and Turlock.

Prior to redistricting by the California Citizens Redistricting Commission of 2011, the 10th district stretched from Livermore to the outskirts of Vacaville. It consisted of portions of Alameda, Contra Costa, Sacramento, and Solano Counties.

The 10th district received national attention in 1996 when Democrat Ellen Tauscher defeated incumbent Republican Bill Baker.
