Is there a list of House representatives from the past 60 years who switched parties in the middle of their terms?

I do know this. There were quite a few during either Reagans term or thereafter.

I can’t recall any recent rat-to-GOP switches besides Phil Gramm (late 1980s?).

After the GOP took the House and Senate by offering Newt Gingrich’s Contract with America, a number of Democrats (I don’t recall how just many) joined the GOP.
