Homburg is one of the 299 single member constituencies used for the German parliament, the Bundestag. One of four districts covering the state of Saarland, it covers the county of Saarpfalz-Kreis, the town of Neunkirchen, the municipality of Friedrichsthal and the towns of Quierschied and Spiesen-Elversberg. The constituency was created for the 1976 election, replacing the former St. Ingbert constituency. It was held by the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) until the 2009 election, when the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) candidate Alexander Funk gained it. He secured another narrow victory in the 2013 election.
