Committee:
Senate Labor and Technology
Summary:
The Committee on Labor and Technology heard several resolutions focused on workforce shortages and program development. STR 145/SR 117 would create a legislative working group on paid family and medical leave; testimony from state agencies, labor groups, advocacy organizations, and others was overwhelmingly supportive, though some asked for broader representation and legal expertise. Members raised questions about prior studies, staffing estimates, and funding needs for administering a future program. The chair ultimately deferred decision making on this measure to March 28, 2025.
The committee also heard STR 55/SR 37 on reviewing the boiler and elevator inspection branch to improve recruitment and retention. DLIR supported the measure, while the Department of Human Resources Development supported the intent but suggested labor should lead the study. Industry witnesses described long inspection wait times, backlogs, and difficulty recruiting inspectors, and several said higher pay and training pathways were needed. The committee voted to pass the resolution unamended.
For STR 64/SR 49, which would establish a Hawaii State Fellows Program, the department supported the concept but said resources would be needed and should be included in the budget rather than a resolution; the committee recommended deferral indefinitely. STR 67/SR 51, addressing hiring shortages in the public mental health care system, drew support from the State Council on Mental Health and others, with requests for amendments to ensure broader cooperation and added agencies. The committee moved the measure as a Senate draft with amendments. STR 63/SR 48, proposing a Hawaii Workforce Excellence Award, received support from DLIR, and the committee later recessed and reconvened for decision making on the measures.

Summary:
The Committee on Higher Education heard Senate Bill 101, which would require University of Hawaiʻi John A. Burns School of Medicine graduates who paid in-state tuition to serve as physicians in Hawaiʻi for at least two years after residency or fellowship, beginning with the class of 2029. The Deputy Attorney General said the bill addressed a matter of statewide concern. JABSOM Dean Sam Shoemaker testified in opposition, arguing the school already uses scholarships, loan repayment, and other incentives, and that the strongest predictor of where physicians practice is where they complete residency; he said the school is working to expand residency slots, neighbor-island training, and class size. Supporters argued the state faces a severe physician shortage and should do more to ensure publicly subsidized students remain in Hawaiʻi. The committee ultimately recommended passage with amendments, including a statewide concern statement, and deferred the measure to July 31, 2025; the vote was adopted.
The committee then heard Senate Bill 19, which creates funds to establish a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree program on Maui. University of Hawaiʻi and nursing workforce representatives testified in support, saying there is ample capacity on Maui and strong demand for higher nursing education. Members discussed the broader nursing pathway, including existing associate and bachelor’s programs at UH campuses and the need to improve access for Maui and nearby communities. The measure was moved to decision-making and adopted with amendments and a deferred date.
Senate Bill 637, appropriating funds for various University of Hawaiʻi nursing programs, also received support from UH nursing leaders, who said the funding would support the final phase of the West Oʻahu-Manoa collaboration and an online RN-to-BS program. The Hawaiʻi State Center for Nursing said its research showed capacity and demand for these programs. The committee recommended amendments to blank out appropriation amounts for the committee report and deferred the measure, then adopted it. The committee also adopted Senate Bill 741, which establishes an external audit committee within the UH Board of Regents, and deferred or amended several other measures, including a wastewater technology pilot program, a coconut rhinoceros beetle response program, and a climate-resilient development appropriation.

Committee:
Senate Energy And Telecommunications
Summary:
The Senate Energy and Telecommunications Committee met under Chair Kevin Parker and considered a series of energy, utility, and clean transportation bills. The committee first advanced a bill by Senator Connery on make-ready electric infrastructure for public-serving EV charging, after members raised concerns that the costs of preparing school bus charging infrastructure could be shifted to ratepayers. The committee then advanced Senator Parker’s pilot program for resilient EV charging microgrids, with discussion focused on using existing NYSERDA resources, the role of batteries, and the bill’s purpose in supporting emergency charging during outages. Another bill on heavy distribution centers and EV charging was also advanced after debate over its application to large warehouse and e-commerce facilities.
The committee also considered a bill on carport-mounted solar systems that would limit local zoning restrictions. A motion to substitute in a different bill was ruled improper for lack of notice, and the chair’s ruling was upheld on appeal. Members then advanced a PSC guidebook bill on gas and electric rate-making, and a utility shutoff protection bill for medical emergencies, life support equipment, and elderly, blind, or disabled customers, with questions about age definitions and the scope of medical documentation. The committee also advanced the Home Utility Weatherization Jobs Act, which would create a pilot program for electrification and weatherization in disadvantaged communities, with members discussing whether the program would be available at no cost to building owners and how utilities would access capital.
Throughout the meeting, members repeatedly raised concerns about who would pay for the programs, whether ratepayers or taxpayers would bear the costs, and how much local control would remain under the solar siting bill. At the end of the meeting, members briefly discussed a recent NYISO report warning about possible summer reliability issues and urged the committee and the PSC to review it closely. The chair noted the report should be considered alongside other state planning documents, and the meeting then adjourned.

Committee:
House State Affairs
Summary:
The committee first heard Senate Joint Memorial 114, which asks Congress to address changes in college athletics caused by NIL and related lawsuits. Representative Brent Crane said the memorial seeks six federal actions to create more predictability in the college sports landscape. Boise State interim president Jeremiah Shinn, athletic director Jeremiah Dickey, head football coach Spencer Danielson, and women’s golf coach Kailen Downs testified in support, emphasizing the economic impact of Boise State athletics, the need for a uniform national framework, and the importance of preserving opportunities for student-athletes across all sports. The committee moved SJM 114 to the floor with a due pass recommendation, and the motion carried unanimously.
The committee then considered Senate Bill 1389, a bill revising liability protections for private property owners who allow their land to be used as polling places. Representative Britt Raifold said the bill is a cleaner solution than earlier versions and preserves tax exemption status while avoiding state indemnification. The committee briefly discussed the changes from prior drafts, and the bill was moved to the floor with a due pass recommendation and passed.
Next, Senate Bill 1391 was presented as a trailer bill to correct an unintended restriction in prior legislation affecting publicly employed land surveyors. Senator Mark Harris explained that the bill restores lawful entry authority for surveyors to perform boundary, right-of-way, and other required work while maintaining notice requirements for property owners. Bruce Bain of Highway District 4 testified in support, saying the measure is needed so highway districts can complete their statutory duties efficiently. The committee sent the bill to the floor with a due pass recommendation.
Finally, the committee heard House Bill 948, which would direct the Legislative Services Office to provide a revenue estimate to help the legislature meet its constitutional balanced-budget obligation. Representative Jeff Ehlers said the bill would give lawmakers another data point alongside existing projections from other agencies and experts. Representative Mickelson questioned whether the bill solved a real problem, arguing that revenue projections already come from DFM and the Governor’s office. Despite one nay vote, the committee approved a motion to send HB 948 to the floor with a due pass recommendation.

Summary:
The Senate Local Government and Taxation Committee heard and advanced four measures. House Bill 792, by Rep. Monks, clarified the relationship between yard sales and the small seller exemption, including how sales tax applies once a seller exceeds the $5,000 threshold and when activity goes beyond the small-seller limits. The committee asked no questions and voted unanimously to send the bill to the floor with a due pass recommendation.
House Bill 722, by Rep. Ayler, corrected timing issues in the new utility tax system created last year, aligning reporting and payment dates with the existing six-month property tax cycle so local governments have revenue figures for budgeting. The sponsor said counties, utilities, and the Tax Commission were all involved and supportive. The committee approved the bill for the floor with a due pass recommendation.
The committee also heard House Bill 707, by Sen. Taves, which would create a streamlined process for subdividing land to finance an accessory dwelling unit or secondary residential structure without going through a full subdivision process, while keeping zoning, access, utility, and agricultural protections in place. No one testified against it, and it was sent to the floor with a due pass recommendation. House Bill 800, also by Sen. Taves, would reduce zoning barriers for manufactured housing by allowing manufactured duplexes in multifamily zones and lowering square-footage thresholds for single-section and multisection homes; the Idaho Manufactured Housing Association testified in strong support. The committee passed that bill to the floor as well. Finally, members approved the March 4, 2026 minutes and adjourned, announcing a meeting the next day at 2:00 p.m.

Summary:
The committee first approved the minutes from Wednesday, February 25. It then introduced several RS measures: RS 33439, a cleanup bill striking duplicative language; RS 3344, which updates the Children’s and Library Protection Act framework by adding a definition of “adolescent minor” and narrowing harmful-material language; RS 33470 C1, which requires sub-district fire commissioners to be electors residing in the sub-district; RS 32895, removing obsolete code on securities lending; and RS 32900, repealing outdated liquor-code provisions, though members raised questions about why some repealed sections were still needed and the sponsor said the liquor division would likely need to return for further explanation.
The committee then heard House Bill 650, sponsored by Representative Boyle and Representative Scott, which would place a statement of federalism and state sovereignty into Idaho Code. Supporters said it would reaffirm constitutional limits on federal and state power and help Idaho assert its position in disputes over federal overreach, land, water, and natural resources; the Idaho Farm Bureau testified in support. Opponents argued the bill was unnecessary, potentially unconstitutional, could create litigation costs, and raised concerns about tribal sovereignty and whether the measure created new legal standards beyond existing constitutional law.
After debate, the committee adopted a motion to send House Bill 650 to the floor with a due pass recommendation. The roll call passed 11-2, with Representatives Church and Haas voting no. The chair closed by praising the committee’s civil and substantive debate.

Summary:
The Workforce Support Subcommittee met with ASL and CART interpretation, took roll call, and approved the prior meeting minutes by motion and second. The main discussion focused on a proposed apprenticeship-related presentation and outreach to the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development (EOLWD), including a draft letter and follow-up communication with Undersecretary Josh Cutler and Amara Ram. Members said the draft looked good and discussed keeping trade partners informed, as well as the need to coordinate with the broader commission before moving forward.
A substantial portion of the meeting centered on apprenticeship opportunities for people with disabilities and how to frame the topic. Members discussed a recent Apprenticeship Week event, noting employer interest, Governor Healey’s goal of expanding apprenticeships to 100,000, and concerns raised by employers about a $250 annual fee and the complexity of the registration process. Participants also discussed the need to include people with disabilities in apprenticeship conversations, challenge stereotypes about suitable jobs, and possibly involve the Commission for the Blind, higher education partners, and behavioral health apprenticeship models.
The subcommittee generally agreed to focus first on child care and home health as initial apprenticeship fields, with direct support, house managers, and program managers also identified as important workforce roles. Members discussed inviting trade representatives and state liaisons, but emphasized that scheduling should not become overly complicated. They leaned toward a Zoom-only format, likely around 90 minutes, and agreed to continue coordinating offline on dates, format, and outreach before the next step.
