This House resolution orders the dismissal of an election contest for Alaska’s at‑large congressional seat. It states that the House can only rule on contests involving official general or special elections, and therefore lacks authority over contests arising from a primary or party convention. The action affects the specific contested election in Alaska.

Key Provisions

  • The resolution dismisses the Alaska at‑large Representative election contest because the House’s jurisdiction under the Federal Contested Election Act covers only general and special elections, not primary elections or party caucuses.
