Summary:
The Ways and Means Committee heard several tax, revenue, and property-tax related measures. SB 318 was amended and reported as amended; it revises the Department of Revenue’s annual tax exemption budget process by removing parish-level reporting from that report, creating a new business tax benefit report due in September, and adding a local sales tax exemption reporting requirement for parish collectors. SB 128, authorizing the Department of Revenue to use an existing vendor to obtain address changes for notices, was reported favorably. SB 149, which changes general obligation bond bid procedures so only the winning bidder must post good-faith money, was amended and reported as amended. SB 180, allowing a surviving spouse of a deceased disabled veteran to make a one-time transfer of an expanded homestead/property tax exemption, was reported favorably. SB 196, extending the tax appeal period from 60 to 90 days and making conforming changes, was amended and reported as amended; committee members noted it was intended to align Louisiana with common practice and improve the state’s tax climate rating.
The committee also considered SCR 11, creating the Anchor Home Task Force to study tax credits to encourage Louisiana college graduates to live and work in the state during their first five years after graduation; it was reported favorably. SB 340, requiring parish assessors statewide to provide a permanent homestead exemption registration form, was reported favorably after questions about local cost and implementation; the sponsor said assessors supported it and it could save mailing costs. The committee then took up Sen. Gregory Miller’s tax-sale reform package: SB 73, SB 238, and SB 191. SB 73 was reported favorably to resolve a conflict between prior law and a 2024 constitutional amendment on ad valorem tax collection timing. SB 238 was reported favorably to clarify procedures for tax sales and notices already issued before January 1, 2026. SB 191 was amended to restore the requirement for two advertisements for tax lien auctions instead of one, then reported favorably. Finally, SB 89, a backup bill limited to St. Charles Parish requiring the homestead exemption form, was also reported favorably after the sponsor said it would not be needed if SB 340 becomes law. HB 1120 was announced as voluntarily deferred, and the committee adjourned without objection.

Summary:
The committee first took up House Bill 695, relating to school districts and medically related grants. The sponsor argued the bill was vague and could undermine existing law, and another member said it would add an unnecessary mandate for school districts. The committee voted to recommend inexpedient to legislate, and the motion passed 18-0.
Next, House Bill 765, which would consolidate school administrative units and make superintendent jobs elected positions, was also recommended inexpedient to legislate. Members said the bill raised too many questions, could duplicate other legislation, and would move away from local control. That motion likewise passed 18-0. House Bill 768, allowing public school districts to contract with approved private schools, drew more debate. Supporters described it as a language cleanup and an expansion of educational opportunity, while opponents raised concerns about the placement of the language and pending Supreme Court cases. The committee voted 10-8 to recommend ought to pass, and then 10-8 to recommend ought to pass as amended, with a minority report noted.
The committee then considered House Bill 446, dealing with parental notice for non-academic surveys. An amendment was offered to make the Youth Risk Behavior Survey opt-in rather than opt-out. Supporters said parents should be informed and should choose whether their children participate, while opponents argued the survey is an important tool for mental health data, grants, and school programming, and that opt-in would reduce participation and data quality. The amendment passed 10-8, and the bill as amended also passed 10-8, with a minority report noted.
Finally, the committee began House Bill 741, which would allow parents to send children to any school district they choose and expand open enrollment. The sponsor described it as broadening choice and keeping public funds in public schools, and an amendment was proposed to restore provisions for children of military personnel. Discussion on the amendment began, but the transcript cuts off before any vote on House Bill 741 or the amendment.

Members then adopted an order to recess the joint session until Thursday, October 9, 2025, and approved a congratulatory resolution for People Incorporated’s new early education center.

Summary:
The Senate opened with the Pledge of Allegiance and recognized NCSL liaisons Mark Quiner and Colleen Becker, who had been meeting with legislators and staff. Several ceremonial resolutions were also read, including commendations for All Care Medical Supply, congratulations to Eagle Scout Owen Michael Odessa, recognition of Black Maternal Health Care Week, and a resolution for World IBS Day.
Senator Ryan Fattman and Representative David DeCoste then honored Molly Gann of Northbridge for scoring 1,000 career basketball points, breaking the town girls’ scoring record with 1,125 points, and becoming the fifth all-time leading scorer in Northbridge basketball history. The Senate also took up a rules matter involving a sick leave bank for Andrew Teterra and a petition concerning assault and battery by means of bodily substances on a transit worker. Senator Collins said the measure was important because transit workers, like public safety employees, cannot strike and need workplace protections amid increasing violence. The Senate suspended the rules and referred the matters to the Committee on the Judiciary.
Finally, Senators Collins and O’Connor moved that the Senate adjourn in memory of Paul F. Gannon of South Boston, and they offered a tribute to his life, family, work as a Teamsters member and longshoreman, and athletic and community ties. The motion prevailed, the chamber observed a moment of silence, and the Senate adjourned to meet again the following Monday at 11 a.m.

Summary:
The joint committees on Energy and Intergovernmental Affairs and Consumer Commerce and Consumer Protection heard HCR 202 HD2, a resolution creating a task force to study Hawaii’s electric generation mix and related costs. Testimony from the Hawaii State Energy Office was neutral and stood on written comments, while another testifier supported the resolution, emphasizing affordability, reliability, and the need to understand the right balance of thermal generation and renewables as the state moves toward its 2045 renewable goals. The chairs said they had conferred on the measure and outlined recommended amendments, including adding study of the separation of ownership and control of generation versus transmission and distribution, and adding Senate committee representation to the task force.
The Consumer Commerce and Consumer Protection committee voted to pass HCR 202 HD2 with amendments; the chair, vice chair, and another member voted aye, with one senator excused, and the recommendation was adopted. The Energy and Intergovernmental Affairs committee did not have quorum at that time and said it would take its vote later.
The Energy and Intergovernmental Affairs committee also heard HCR 165, concerning pickleball courts in Hawaii Kai. One resident testified in opposition, citing concerns about permanent lights, permanent nets, noise, light pollution, safety, maintenance, and the loss of multi-use flexibility. After discussion, the chair recommended passing the measure as is, and the committee said it would vote the next day because it lacked quorum. The committee also heard HCR 154 and HCR 43 with the Transportation Committee; HCR 154 was passed unamended, and HCR 43, which urged raised crosswalks near Ala Wai Elementary School for pedestrian safety, was also passed unamended. Supporters of HCR 43 described heavy pedestrian traffic, schoolchildren crossing, and unsafe vehicle turning patterns at the intersections. The Transportation Committee adopted both recommendations, while the Energy and Intergovernmental Affairs committee scheduled its votes for the following day.

Summary:
The committee began with resolutions HCR 93 and HR 85, which ask the Hawaii State Commission on the Status of Women, in collaboration with the Department of the Attorney General, to form a working group and report on ways to strengthen protections for survivors of image-based sexual abuse. The Attorney General’s office said it could support the effort as legal counsel to the commission but preferred not to be an active working-group member, and suggested the Legislative Reference Bureau could instead conduct a nationwide study for stakeholders. The Commission on the Status of Women supported the resolutions but urged broader scope to include prevention and intervention, expanded stakeholder membership, keeping the Attorney General involved, and adjusting the report deadline. Testimony in support also came from the Emoa Alliance, which emphasized the prevalence and harms of image-based abuse and the need for stronger protections. Members asked questions about current criminal and civil remedies, reporting barriers, and whether the commission could administer the effort without the Attorney General; no votes were taken on the resolutions during the excerpted discussion.
The committee then heard HCR 113 and HR 106, supporting the Native Hawaiian Intellectual Property Working Group’s request for more resources and a timeline extension to fiscal year 2026-2027. The Office of Hawaiian Affairs testified in support, saying Native Hawaiian culture, traditional knowledge, and cultural expressions are increasingly being commercialized and exploited without adequate protection, and that the working group needs more time, resources, and community consultation to complete its work. The committee noted six supporters and no opposition or comments.
The hearing also covered HCR 193 and HR 183, which would establish a court security and Department of Law Enforcement capacity working group to address staffing shortages and the use of private security at state courts. The Judiciary supported the intent, asked that the working group supplement rather than replace its budget request, and proposed allowing the chair to add members with relevant experience. In response to questions, Judiciary said it has requested $3.25 million for armed private security, which it said would cover about 18 contracted individuals, though with significant company overhead. The committee then moved through several bills: SB 2667, which restricts certain commercial vehicles and trailers from the far-left lane on multi-lane roads, received support from the Department of Transportation; SB 2851, which allows deaf vehicle owners to register a deafness designation for law enforcement access, drew testimony in support; SB 2521, which updates emergency vehicle rules and exempts EMS personnel from CDL requirements, received testimony from Honolulu Emergency Services; and SB 2466, which would make the Chief Elections Officer terminable only for cause, drew support from the League of Women Voters and opposition from Hawaiian Islands Republican Women, who argued the change could reduce accountability and create election disruptions if litigation over termination occurs.

Summary:
The Senate opened with the Pledge of Allegiance, then took up reports from the Committee on Rules concerning several Senate petitions. On motion to suspend Rule 36 and Joint Rule 12, both suspensions were approved, allowing the matters to be referred to their respective committees. The chamber also welcomed a guest from the Hawaii Senate Clerk’s Office before briefly recessing while awaiting additional documents.
After the recess, the Senate adopted a congratulatory resolution for Jake Graziano on attaining the rank of Eagle Scout. The House then returned Senate No. 2540, the fiscal year 2025 appropriations bill, with a House amendment striking everything after the enacting clause and substituting House Document No. 4265. Senator Roderick moved that the Senate non-concur in the House amendment and request a committee of conference, and the Chair appointed Senators Roderick, Comerford, and O'Connor to that committee.
The Senate also adopted an order, offered by Senator Tarr, setting the next meeting for Thursday at 12:00 noon in a full formal session with a calendar. The chamber then adjourned to that time.
