The U.S. House election, 1952 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1952 which coincided with the election of President Dwight Eisenhower. Eisenhower''s Republican Party gained 22 seats from the Democratic Party, gaining a majority of the House. This would be the last time Republicans won a majority in the House until the 1994 midterm elections.

Martin, Jr. (R-Massachusetts) became Speaker of the House, exchanging places with Sam Rayburn (D-Texas) who became the new Minority Leader.
