Summary: The House convened, led the pledge, established a quorum, and approved the journal from Thursday, January 22, 2026 as corrected. The meeting then moved into announcements and introductions rather than bill debate. Members welcomed the Rocky Mountain Police and Fire Chaplain and recognized First Responder Chaplaincy Day at the Capitol, with remarks emphasizing support for first responders’ physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. Several members made brief announcements about upcoming or ongoing events, including a Joint Local Government and Housing Smart Committee meeting, the livestock sale at the stock show, and a Marty GR potluck planned for February 17. One member thanked the Transportation, Housing, and Local Government Committee for canceling some presentations to speed up proceedings. The House also heard a short reading from More Than Pett Coats: Remarkable Colorado Women about Sister Blandina Segale, highlighting themes of service, charity, and overcoming prejudice. The session was light and informal, with repeated references to the Broncos and a group photo in team gear. No substantive legislation was considered, and no recorded votes occurred beyond adoption of the corrected journal. The House then recessed until later in the day.

Summary: The Committee on Culture and the Arts met on February 13 and heard testimony on HB 2045, which would designate La Hoʻihoʻi Ea Sovereignty Restoration Day as a state holiday in place of Statehood Day. Testimony was overwhelmingly in support, including from the Hawaii Civil Rights Commission, the Office of Hawaiian Affairs, the Naviʻoliʻoli Newi Foundation, and many individuals and students. Supporters said the bill would better reflect Hawaiian history, sovereignty, and self-determination, while a few agencies submitted comments. The committee recessed to allow more students to arrive and testify. After reconvening, additional student testimony continued in strong support of HB 2045. Students said the change would honor Native Hawaiian history and culture, recognize Hawaii as a sovereign nation, and provide a more historically grounded observance. Members thanked the students for traveling to testify and for sharing their perspectives. The committee then voted to pass HB 2045 with one amendment to defect the date; the motion passed unanimously with the chair, vice chair, and members voting aye, and one member excused. The committee also heard HB 1703 HD1, which authorizes rodeos and rodeo activities on lands zoned for agriculture or pastoral use. Testimony in support came from the Department of Land and Natural Resources, the Agribusiness Development Corporation, and the Iron Workers Stabilization Fund, with comments from the Hawaii Food and Policy group. Supporters described rodeos as cultural and social events that could boost local economies, create jobs, and provide youth and community engagement. The committee passed HB 1703 HD1 with technical amendments. Finally, the committee considered HB 2461, which would increase the ceiling for the works of art special fund and appropriate funds for preservation of the state’s public art collection and a collections manager position. After discussion, the chair said the measure would not move forward this year and recommended deferral; the committee deferred the bill and adjourned.
