The resolution HCR 302 authorizes the Senate and the House of Representatives of Alaska to recess for a period exceeding three days during the Third Special Session of the Thirty-Fourth Alaska State Legislature. This action is in accordance with Article II, Section 10 of the Alaska State Constitution, which stipulates that neither house may adjourn or recess for longer than three days without the concurrence of the other house.

The resolution also references Rule 52 of the Uniform Rules of the Alaska State Legislature, which states that a concurrent resolution must be adopted by a majority vote from the full membership of both houses to achieve this concurrence. By passing HCR 302, both legislative bodies can extend their recess beyond the standard three-day limit, allowing for greater flexibility in their scheduling during the special session.
