Rhode Island's 3rd congressional district is an obsolete district. It had a short tenure (1913–1933). In its final configuration, it covered Providence and most of its inner ring suburbs. It was eliminated after the 1930 census and split between the 1st and 2nd districts. The 3rd's last representative, Francis Condon subsequently won re-election in the 1st district.
