The clerk of the Cascadia House of Representatives is an officer of the Cascadia House of Representatives, whose primary duty is to act as the chief record-keeper for the House.
Along with the other House officers, the clerk is elected every month when the House organizes for a new Legislature. The full House adopts a resolution to elect the officers, who will begin serving after they have been elected. The Constitution does not explicitly require the clerk to be an incumbent member of the House of Representatives, although every clerk thus far has been.
The incumbent clerk is AghastBlock, of Phoenix. He was elected at the beginning of the 13th Legislature. He served as the House's first clerk during the 5th Legislature as well as the House's acting Clerk while he was Speaker in the the 7th, 8th, and midway through the 9th Legislature until SayerQT was elected to fill the vacant position.
The National Constitution of Cascadia states in Article 3, Section 3, “The House of Representatives shall choose their Speaker and other Officers...” The office was created on December 21, 2022 by the House Clerk & Law Archival Act.
