The Alaska State Legislature has passed a resolution affirming its commitment to voter privacy, election integrity, and the right to vote, while expressing serious concerns about the disclosure of confidential voter information to the United States Department of Justice (DOJ). The resolution highlights the expectation of Alaskan voters that their personal information will be protected under state law and used solely for legitimate election administration purposes. It references the state's constitutional right to privacy and the authority of state legislatures over federal elections, emphasizing that the state's voter registration information, including sensitive data such as social security numbers and residential addresses, is confidential under state law.

The resolution also addresses the recent demand from the DOJ for Alaska's complete voter registration list, which led to the transmission of confidential information for approximately 570,000 registered voters. The Alaska State Legislature expresses concern that this data may be misused for purposes beyond voter roll maintenance, particularly given the lack of oversight regarding how the DOJ handles this information. The resolution urges the division of elections to seek detailed information from the DOJ about the storage, access, and use of the state voter data, and commits to monitoring federal voter registration requirements to ensure that no eligible residents are disenfranchised, particularly vulnerable populations such as Alaska Native communities and rural residents.
