Bill overview
This bill creates the Solving an Overlooked Loophole in Votes for Executives (SOLVE) Act to address a potential constitutional issue related to presidential and vice-presidential elections. It establishes a panel of six constitutional experts tasked with recommending legislation to Congress on how to handle a vacancy in the office of President or Vice President that occurs due to a candidate’s death during a contingent election. The panel will submit interim and final reports to Congress within specified timeframes, and it will ultimately terminate 90 days after submitting its final report.
