The resolution establishes a House Special Committee on Fisheries within the Alaska House of Representatives. This committee is created in recognition of the importance of fishing to the Alaskan lifestyle, tourism, and the commercial fishing industry, as well as the significance of subsistence fisheries. The resolution emphasizes the need for the legislature to be well-informed on various fishery-related issues that impact the state.

The Speaker of the House is tasked with determining the number of committee members, appointing them, and designating a chairperson. The committee is authorized to meet during and between legislative sessions and will be dissolved at the start of the First Regular Session of the Thirty-Fifth Alaska State Legislature.
