Skyler Wheeler (born April 24, 1993) is an American politician. A member of the Republican Party, he has served as member of the Iowa House of Representatives, representing the 4th district since 2017. Wheeler finished first in a field of three candidates during a 2016 party primary. He was subsequently elected in a general election later that year to replace retiring Republican representative John Kooiker. He defeated independent candidate Jeff VanDerWerff in the general election, who had lost the Republican primary earlier that year. In his bid for a second term in 2018, Wheeler ran unopposed. In the 2020 general election, Wheeler defeated Democratic Party candidate Björn Johnson. In a 2022 primary, Wheeler defeated Dordt University student Kendal Zylstra, winning 52% of the vote.
