Summary: The joint committee on Ways and Means and Consumer Protection met for decision-making only on two agendas and took action on a large number of Senate bills, with no oral testimony heard. On the 1016 agenda, the committee recommended passage of measures including SB 2088, SB 2925, SB 2781, and several others, and passed a number of bills with amendments. Notable amendments included SB 3263, which adopted AG amendments related to the name, image, and likeness endowment trust fund; SB 2047 on pharmacy benefit managers, which incorporated Hawaii Pharmacist Association changes; SB 2087 on health insurance, which added Insurance Division clarifications; SB 2100 on pesticides, which added a blank appropriation; SB 2353 on outdoor signage, which removed provisions related to the Wiki special district; and SB 2902 on renewable energy, which clarified certification standards for portable solar devices and exempted them from certain disclosure requirements. Most recommendations were adopted without objection, though a few members noted reservations on selected bills. The committee also deferred one bill on the agenda, SB 3327. The committee then moved to the 1015 agenda and acted on additional measures. SB 2003 was passed with amendments tied to Act 255, including a repeal trigger if deadlines are missed; SB 2497 on utility-related transparency drew the most discussion, with one member warning about litigation and costs while another argued it was simply about electricity-rate transparency, and it ultimately passed with PUC-related amendments and an exemption for utility cooperatives. Other measures were passed unamended or with technical or fiscal amendments, including bills affecting land planning, tax credits, conveyance tax language, shoreline maintenance, and community improvement projects. Several bills had appropriations blanked or effective dates deferred to 2050, and many were adopted with members noting reservations rather than opposition. On the 1017 agenda, the committee continued approving measures, including SB 709 on crisis intervention officers and assisted community treatment, SB 2153 on defining bona fide farmer/agriculture activity, SB 2694 on water rate adjustments, SB 3025 on income eligibility limits, and SB 3085 on the Hawaii film studio, which included a five-year repeal provision if the studio has not relocated. The committee also passed numerous other bills unamended or with technical amendments, often deferring effective dates or blanking appropriations. Across both agendas, the committee’s actions were largely consistent: bills were advanced with amendments tailored to agency requests, technical corrections, or fiscal adjustments, and votes were generally unanimous or near-unanimous with occasional reservations recorded.

Summary: The committee heard testimony on SB 2433 SD1 relating to condominiums, which would direct the condominium education trust fund toward educational resources for unit owners and require the Real Estate Commission to ensure owners’ interests are represented in funded activities and related rulemaking. Supporters, including the Hawaii Real Estate Commission and a condominium owner advocate, said owners need a seat at the table in condo governance and education efforts. Committee discussion focused on whether the bill was necessary, with the Real Estate Commission indicating it could already use the trust fund for owner education and that owners are already considered stakeholders, though not through a specific commission seat. No vote was taken during the excerpted discussion. The committee then took up SB 2047 SD2 HD1 on pharmacy benefit managers, which would set requirements for maximum allowable cost reimbursement, allow reverse-and-rebill claims after successful appeals, and authorize fines for violations. The Insurance Division offered comments, the Hawaii Pharmacists Association supported the measure with amendments and suggested future PBM reform funding, and Kaiser Permanente requested a technical amendment. A committee question raised whether the staffing and resource request for implementation was too large for a bill focused only on MAC pricing, and the witness said he would provide more data to the next committee. No final action was shown. Next was SB 2425 SD2 HD1 on health insurance and substance use disorder treatment, requiring insurers to honor written assignments of benefits to SUD providers and prohibiting anti-assignment clauses. Supporters described patients being unable to access treatment because of high out-of-pocket costs and said direct payment would reduce harm for people in recovery. HMSA opposed the bill but said it would begin direct payments to non-participating SUD facilities effective March 27, while continuing to object to the assignment-of-benefits portion because of fraud and balance-billing concerns; the Hawaii Association of Health Plans also opposed. Members questioned HMSA about reimbursement mechanics and why the bill was needed if coverage policies were already changing. Finally, the committee heard SB 3045 SD1 HD1, which would require coverage of continuous glucose monitors and related supplies, including for Medicaid managed care, under certain conditions. DHS and the Insurance Division offered comments, while SHPDA, Hilo Benioff Medical Center Foundation, and others supported the bill, citing inconsistent access and a case in which a woman allegedly died after being denied a CGM. HMSA said it already covers medically necessary CGMs and had updated its policy in 2025 for type 1 and insulin-dependent patients, but it raised concerns about expanding mandated coverage to type 2 and gestational diabetes and about supply impacts. The committee also discussed whether the bill duplicated existing coverage standards and why it had been introduced repeatedly. No votes or final dispositions were included in the excerpt.

Summary: The committee opened by reviewing hearing procedures and then took up SB 2580, which concerns Hawaii’s film production tax credit and related incentives. Testimony was strongly supportive overall, with witnesses saying the measure would help attract productions, extend the sunset date, include streaming platforms, and strengthen the state’s competitiveness. Several supporters asked for cleanup language on grant administration, tax credit management, local-hire uplifts, and limits on third-party audit requirements for smaller productions. The state film office said the bill was generally strong but suggested clarifying language and noted that DBEDT and DOTAX already provide oversight of the current credit. No vote was taken in the transcript, but the bill drew broad support with a few comments and one opposition noted later in the hearing. The committee then heard SB 2578 SD1, a measure to create a film commission and related grant structure. Testifiers said the proposal would formalize industry input, improve accountability, and help the state compete globally, but they also raised concerns about how a new grant program would interact with the existing tax credit system. The film office said the grant program and tax credit should be separated operationally, that the advisory structure should include industry voices and possibly union representation, and that county film commissioner language may need technical adjustment. A testifier also suggested a Hawaii film museum and related tourism opportunities. The measure was described as having 42 supporters, one opposition, and five comments, with no final action shown. The committee next considered SB 2259, a dementia training measure. Supporters, including the bill’s drafter and the Alzheimer’s Association, described personal caregiving experiences and said free dementia training could help workers and families. Suggested amendments focused on clarifying the relationship between EOA and DBED and allowing retraining every two years because of workforce turnover. DBED said the bill is worthwhile but is not really an economic development initiative, and it should align with existing dementia programs and be easy for businesses to use, preferably online. The committee then moved to SB 3084 SD1, which HTDC said would expand its R&D matching program beyond SBIR to other federal research grants because of uncertainty at the federal level; the transcript ends as testimony begins, with no vote or final action recorded.

Summary: The committee held a hearing on Senate Bill 5849, which would require school districts, charter schools, and state tribal education compact schools to provide financial education instruction and make meeting state financial education learning standards a high school graduation requirement beginning with the class of 2033, with instruction starting in the 2029-30 school year. Staff explained the bill’s relationship to existing graduation requirements, the State Board of Education’s role in recommending implementation details, and a fiscal note showing about $201,000 in state costs over four years, with additional indeterminate district costs. Members asked about how the requirement would fit different school schedules, whether teacher preparation and clock-hour training would be addressed, and whether the content would be standalone or could be embedded in other courses. The bill’s sponsor and supporters said it should be flexible, aligned with Future Ready work, and responsive to modern financial needs; opponents from school directors’ groups argued districts are already overburdened and warned against adding another unfunded mandate. Testimony on SB 5849 was overwhelmingly supportive from students, educators, nonprofits, bankers, and business representatives. Supporters said many students graduate without basic knowledge of budgeting, credit, loans, taxes, investing, or W-2 forms, and described personal experiences showing the need for required instruction. Several speakers emphasized that the bill should allow multiple pathways to meet the standard rather than requiring a standalone class, so districts would not have to cut electives. Opponents acknowledged the value of financial literacy but said schools lack time and funding to add requirements. The committee then moved into executive session on several other bills. In executive action, the committee advanced Senate Bill 6278, which sets requirements for the Professional Educator Standards Board’s review of teacher preparation programs; Senate Bill 613, directing high schools to observe National Voter Registration Day and hold a registration event; Senate Bill 6222, allowing surplus school technology to be sold or given to students, with priority for low-income students; and Senate Bill 6206, creating a child care pilot for first responders. It also considered a second packet of bills and adopted substitutes before moving forward: SB 6260 on school bus depreciation and Running Start/MSOC adjustments was referred to Ways and Means; SB 5346 on digital citizenship and student mobile device use was given a due pass recommendation; SB 6263 on school district bid thresholds was sent to Rules; SB 6268 on public access to special education complaint decisions was sent to Rules; and SB 6247 on financial oversight and distress support for school districts was amended and sent to Ways and Means. The committee approved the relevant proposed substitutes and bills by voice vote, with no recorded opposition noted in the transcript.

Summary: The House convened with a quorum, the flags were presented by the Washington National Guard Color Guard, the Pledge of Allegiance and National Anthem were observed, and a prayer was offered by a Washington Army National Guard chaplain. The chamber then adopted House Resolution 4675, honoring the Washington National Guard for its service in disaster response, search and rescue, military readiness, and community support. Representatives Donaghy and Lee spoke in support, emphasizing the Guard’s role in floods, landslides, and other emergencies, and the resolution passed by voice vote. The Speaker also recognized visiting Guard members and guests from the Nespelem tribe, and a member used personal privilege to honor Congressman Dan Newhouse and his public service. The main legislative dispute centered on how to handle two certified initiatives, IL-26-638 and IL-26-001. Representative Couture moved to suspend House rules and refer the initiatives to the Education Committee for prompt public hearings, arguing the Constitution requires precedence for initiatives. Representative Fitzgibbon opposed, citing Amendment 7 and the legislature’s option to take no action. After debate from several members on both sides about constitutional duty, precedence, and the meaning of “no action,” the motion failed on a recorded vote, 38 yeas and 57 nays, with three excused. The House then considered the regular motion to send the bills, memorials, resolutions, and initiatives on the introduction sheet to their designated committees. Supporters said this was the normal referral process; opponents argued the two initiatives should be given priority and held at the desk. After further debate, the motion passed on a recorded vote, 57 yeas and 38 nays, with three excused. Committee reports were then accepted by consent, and the House adjourned until 10:30 a.m. Thursday, January 29.

Summary: The Education Oversight committee heard and advanced several bills, with most receiving due pass recommendations by voice vote. HB 4359, by Speaker Pro Tem Moore, would move the annual testing window to the last three weeks of the school year; members asked about district scheduling and possible cost impacts, but the bill passed 10-0. HB 4363 updated outdated statutory references tied to OSU’s early development and also passed unanimously. HB 3467 would extend school-teacher maternity leave protections to include adoption of newborn children, and it passed without opposition. HB 2987 would change how academic standards are handled if the legislature takes no action within 30 legislative days, deeming them disapproved rather than approved; supporters said it preserves legislative oversight, while concerns were raised about leaving outdated standards in place, but it passed. HB 376, as amended, would create a new alternative teacher certification pathway through third-party certifiers; debate centered on whether easier pathways would weaken traditional teacher-prep programs or help fill vacancies, and it passed after extended discussion. The committee also advanced HB 4427, which adds guardrails to the adjunct teacher program by limiting adjuncts in core subjects in grades K-4 and requiring them to work toward certification. HB 3026 would let children of U.S. military allies stationed in Oklahoma start kindergarten according to their home-country timelines, and it passed. HB 3288 would restore physical education emphasis in schools, and HB 3315 would direct a feasibility study on 90-hour bachelor’s degree programs; both moved forward. HB 3711 would require schools to post the percentage of spending devoted to instructional expenditures on their websites and bond applications, with the sponsor declining to extend the same requirement to private schools receiving public tax-credit dollars. HB 3885 drew the most debate. It would establish suspension and expulsion standards for students who physically attack teachers or school employees, with supporters arguing it gives administrators clearer authority to protect staff and students and opponents warning it could conflict with existing protections for students with disabilities and create legal risk. The sponsor said the bill is intended to address intentional violence and allow case-by-case judgment, while critics cited prior civil-rights concerns over disproportionate discipline. Despite the objections, the bill passed on a due pass recommendation. The committee adjourned after announcing it would meet again Wednesday at 9 a.m.
