[constituency_baseline] District summary: North Dakota's at-large congressional district encompasses the entire state — the eighth-largest congressional district by land area in the nation. Home to approximately 784,841 constituents, the district is predominantly rural with an economy anchored in agriculture (wheat, soybeans, corn, sugar beets, cattle), energy production (Bakken shale oil, coal, wind), and manufacturing. The state has a median household income of $76,657 — more than double the national median of $37,585 — with a remarkably low poverty rate of 6.5% and unemployment of 2.8%. The population is 83% White, with Native Americans comprising approximately 5% (including the Standing Rock, Spirit Lake, Turtle Mountain, and Fort Berthold reservations). Only 4.51% of residents are foreign-born. Homeownership is 62.9%, median age is 35.9 (younger than national average), and 32.7% of adults hold a bachelor's degree. The state is overwhelmingly Republican with a Cook PVI of R+39 — the 4th most Republican district in the country. Fedorchak is the first woman to represent North Dakota in the U.S. House. She won the 2024 general election with approximately 69% of the vote.

Voted sponsored on H.R. 3843 (Baseload Reliability Protection Act (sponsored)) on 2025-06-11: Fedorchak introduced legislation to protect baseload power plants (coal, natural gas, nuclear) from early retirement — directly benefiting the coal industry that is a major employer and donor in North Dakota. The bill aligns with her PSC background where she expressed sympathy for coal industry representatives opposing wind farm approvals and warned about the 'rapid pace of thermal retirements.' This legislation crystallizes the energy-regulator-to-congressional-energy-champion pipeline.

Voted nay on H.Con.Res. 38 (Iran War Powers Resolution (March 5, 2026)) on 2026-03-05: Fedorchak voted against a bipartisan resolution to terminate unauthorized U.S. military operations in Iran, joining 215 Republicans to defeat the measure 219-212. She also voted nay on the April 16 follow-up resolution. Both votes aligned her with the president's unfettered war-making authority — a position consistent with her hawkish foreign policy stance and her August 2025 AIPAC-organized trip to Israel.

Voted yea on H.R. 1 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA)) on 2025-05-22: Fedorchak voted yea on legislation the CBO projected would add $3.4 trillion to deficits and cause 10+ million to lose health coverage. Her state would lose $1.42 billion in Medicaid funding and 19,000 North Dakotans would lose coverage. She claimed the bill would not reduce benefits and dismissed the CBO as unreliable. Her district has 6.5% poverty and 62.9% homeownership — but is R+39, insulating her from electoral blowback. Top donor sectors Oil & Gas ($76K), Commercial Banks ($52K), and Leadership PACs ($122K) backed the bill's tax and energy provisions. She sits on the Energy and Commerce Committee, which drafted the Medicaid cuts.

[statement] Fedorchak dismissed the CBO scoring of the OBBBA as unreliable, stating the CBO's score of the 2017 tax cuts' deficit increase 'was off by $1.5 trillion' and that making the tax cuts permanent 'are going to trigger a lot of investment and new growth... and increase revenues.' She insisted the bill would decrease the deficit, contradicting the CBO projection of a $3.4 trillion deficit increase.

[disclosure] The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates the reforms would result in more than 10 million people losing Medicaid coverage over 10 years. The North Dakota Legislative Council estimated the state would lose $1.42 billion in Medicaid funding over 10 years and approximately 19,000 North Dakotans would lose health coverage. Fedorchak acknowledged she did not have an estimate of how many of the 105,000 North Dakotans on Medicaid would be impacted.

[disclosure] As chair of the North Dakota Public Service Commission, Fedorchak was responsible for regulating the energy industry. Her opponent Trygve Hammer pointed to a $10,000 donation from North American Coal in September 2014 followed by an October 2014 vote to approve the Coyote Creek Mine, and a NextEra wind energy project vote followed by a $5,000 PAC donation.
