Resolves YES if the elected Speaker of the House is not a member of the House of Representatives, otherwise NO.
Context: As per Wikipedia: "The Constitution does not require the speaker to be an incumbent member of the House of Representatives, although every speaker thus far has been."
Fine print: Only the first-elected Speaker of the House in the 118th United States Congress will count toward the resolution of this market. (Any Speaker pro tempore will have no bearing on the resolution of this market.)
