Keywords: House Select Committee on Advancing Rural and Small Town Health Care, 976, house, all

Summary: The Rural Health Care Committee met to reorganize for the new interim, adopt its annual electronic meetings policy, and hear member priorities for the coming work. Members emphasized recurring rural health issues including access to primary and specialty care, workforce shortages, transportation barriers, maternal health and OB-GYN shortages, dental care, telehealth and broadband limitations, and the financial strain on rural hospitals. Several members also highlighted the value of mobile clinics, community colleges and K-12 pipeline programs, and bringing providers and local health departments into future meetings. Secretary of Health and Human Resources Marvin Figueroa briefed the committee on the worsening condition of rural hospitals and the impact of federal H.R. 1, saying Virginia’s rural health system faces major financial pressure and that the state’s Rural Health Transformation Fund is not a replacement for lost Medicaid-related support. He described the fund as a temporary opportunity to test new models such as mobile care, community paramedicine, workforce pipelines, and remote monitoring, while warning that coverage losses and service reductions are likely if the state cannot adapt quickly. Heidi Hertz, director of rural health transformation, then outlined Virginia’s approved plan and implementation timeline. She explained that Virginia will receive $189.5 million in year one, with funds needing to be obligated by October 30, 2026, and that the state must meet CMS metrics to avoid clawbacks or rescoring. She described the plan’s major workstreams: Care IQ for technology and innovation, Homegrown Health Heroes for workforce development, Connected Care Closer to Home for access and maternal care, and Live Well Together for prevention and chronic disease management, including Food is Medicine and consumer health technology. Committee members asked about local health department involvement, contracting structure, metrics, and funding sustainability, and Hertz said the committee would receive the presentation and that regional meetings and RFAs would roll out over the coming months. A public commenter thanked the committee for supporting a midwifery work group, and the meeting adjourned after members were encouraged to continue sharing ideas and helping publicize the program.

Summary: The committee opened by explaining hearing procedures, including a two-minute oral testimony limit and that decision-making would follow after testimony. It then took up SB 20008, which would set 55 mph as the maximum speed limit on all parts of the DKI/Saddle Road highway. The bill’s introducer described it as a response to safety concerns and noted prior public opposition when the speed limit was lowered from 60 mph; the Hawaii Police Department was listed in opposition, while DOT and several individuals testified in support. No vote was taken during the portion provided. The committee next heard SB 20009, requiring new plates/tags or emblems for used motor vehicles transferred between private individuals, and SB 2026, which would require drivers approaching stationary vehicles on the shoulder or roadside to slow down and, if necessary, change lanes. The Attorney General supported SB 2026 but recommended narrowing and clarifying the language by removing references to shoulder/roadside, collision or mechanical problem, and other limiting definitions so the duty would apply more broadly and be easier to enforce; AAA and OMA also supported the measure. Members discussed the practical need for a mandatory move-over rule, especially for roadside workers and tow operators, and the committee heard concerns about enforceability on two-lane roads and in accident scenes. SB 2053 was then heard, authorizing electronic signatures on supporting documents used to transfer ownership of total-loss vehicles to insurers without notarization and requiring insurers to indemnify the finance director for claims arising from those electronic title issuances. The Hawaii Insurers Council, Copart, the City and County of Honolulu, and others supported the bill, with Copart describing it as a modernization that would reduce delays for total-loss settlements; technical amendments were requested. The committee also heard SB 2172, which would allow all-terrain vehicles to operate at night if equipped with lights and a slow-moving vehicle emblem, adjust helmet requirements, define utility terrain vehicles, and include ATVs in motor vehicle insurance law. DOT said it could support the bill only if limited to low-speed areas, and the insurance industry warned it could create a new insurance scheme; the City and County of Honolulu opposed while the Hawaii Farm Bureau and an individual supported. Finally, SB 2253 was introduced to expand first-degree negligent injury to include injuries negligently inflicted by intoxicated drivers, with DOT, county prosecutors, and the Honolulu Prosecutor’s Office in support; Honolulu prosecutors said they would oppose a proposed amendment because they wanted the language to preserve the offense as a lesser included offense tied to negligent homicide.

Keywords: Upon adjournment of the concurrent meeting, the Senate State and Local Government committee will continue meeting, 958, all

Summary: The concurrent meeting began with roll calls for both the Senate Standing Committee on State and Local Government and the House Standing Committee on Local Government, establishing quorums. The committees then heard a Department for Local Government presentation on the Community Development Block Grant program, which serves smaller and more rural areas. Commissioner Matt Sawyers and Executive Director Mark Williams explained the 2026 HUD application as a public hearing, noting an estimated total of a little over $25 million, with proposed allocations for public facilities, community projects, economic development, public services/Recovery Kentucky, and housing. They also described proposed changes, including shifting some funding from economic development to housing, raising non-traditional application ceilings, extending the economic development application window, and giving the commissioner flexibility to reallocate funds if requests exceed the allotment. No legislators or members of the public asked questions, and both chambers approved the presentation and then adjourned the House portion. The Senate committee then took up Senate Bill 149 by Senator Elkins, which updates county treasurer statutes. The bill shortens the waiting period for appointing an acting treasurer from 30 days to 5 days and allows fiscal courts to appoint a temporary treasurer for up to 60 days during vacancies, illness, incapacity, or termination. Members discussed the need for continuity in county finances, and the bill received favorable expression 9-0. Next, the committee considered several housing-related bills from the housing task force. Senate Bill 224, by Senator Mills, creates vested property rights for development applications and narrows who may appeal certain local land-use decisions; the committee adopted a substitute, then approved the bill 8-1 after members raised concerns about standing language and possible impacts on local participation. Senate Bill 225 requires the housing and construction department to analyze the cost and housing-supply effects of proposed housing regulations; it passed 9-0 after a committee substitute. Senate Bill 233, by Senator Neal, removes annual financial reporting requirements for homeowners associations with 14 lots or fewer to reduce burdens on small developments; it passed 9-0. Finally, Senate Joint Resolution 75, as amended, directs the Public Service Commission to study affordability and water/wastewater utility regionalization, including possible consolidation of small districts; the amendment and the resolution both passed 9-0, with one member noting concerns about whether the matter should proceed as an administrative case rather than a study.
