  • Bob Mcdermott Ewa Beach - Legislative Wrap Up!
    State Representative Bob McDermott Ewa Beach - Legislative Wrap Up! Campbell H.S. Gets New Athletic Complex from the Legislature! Working with Senator Fevella (above right), speaking with one voice, we were able to secure $6.29M for a new James Campbell High School Athletic Complex, starting with the track and football field. This in addition to the $1M that was released last November for planning and design of the above facility. We thank the majority leadership of both chambers. The JCHS Athletic Facility Master Plan and the anticipated build-out of the Campbell Athletic Complex will be essential to the success of our athletic programs and student morale. This new athletic complex will be touching the lives of tens of thousands of individuals, both young and old. The Ewa Beach community has been waiting for five decades for an adequate and equitable athletic complex and our time has finally arrived. The genesis of the request for the JCHS Athletic Facility Master Plan was to develop a "Campbell Athletic Complex" for the use of all Ewa Beach DOE schools including Campbell, the two middle schools, and the seven elementary schools, as well as the community. As such the intent of the Campbell Athletic Complex is to serve the athletic needs of the Ewa Beach community and not just JCHS. Sen. Fevella and Rep. McDermott on the joint money committees, speaking with one powerful voice Campbell High School Gender Equity Update As the father of a daughter at Campbell High School, I am pleased to inform you that your legislative team of Rep.

    Women’s Legislative Caucus STATE CAPITOL HONOLULU, HAWAII 96813 NEWS RELEASE MEDIA CONTACT: Thelma Dreyer, 808-586-6261 Date: September 17, 2014 REVISED HPD CHIEF CANCELS MEETING WITH HAWAII WOMEN'S LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS AND WOMEN HONOLULU CITY COUNCILMEMBERS HONOLULU – The Hawaii Women's Legislative Caucus today announced that they received a call from the Honolulu Police Department's (HPD) Chief of Police’s office canceling Thursday’s meeting with the Women’s State Legislative Caucus and three women members of the Honolulu City Council. A representative of the Women’s Caucus spoke with the office of Chief of Police Louis M. Kealoha to ask that the commitment to meet with the women on Thursday be honored. “The purpose of Thursday’s meeting was for the Women’s Legislative Caucus and the three women city councilmembers to have the opportunity to speak with Chief Kealoha directly," said Senate President Donna Mercado Kim, a member of the Women’s Caucus. "We hoped to work cooperatively with the police to strengthen efforts to end domestic violence and keep victims safe. We wanted to discuss concerns and questions about HPD’s internal policies and procedures regarding domestic violence cases, especially when one of their own officers is a suspect that has been brought to us by victims’ service providers." “The Women’s Legislative Caucus and women Honolulu City Councilmembers asked for the opportunity to discuss these issues with Chief Kealoha prior to the public informational briefing so that he could be prepared to respond fully in public, and to, hopefully, open the door to improved partnerships and outcomes in domestic violence cases," said Senate President Kim.

  • The Twenty-Sixth Legislature Regular Session of 20 II HOUSE OF
    The Twenty-Sixth Legislature Regular Session of20II HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Committee on Health Rep. Ryan 1. Yamane, Chair Rep. Dee Morikawa, Vice Chair State Capitol, Conference Room 329 Tuesday, March 22, 2011; 9:00 a.m. STATEMENT OF THE ILWU LOCAL 142 ON S.B.1086, SD1 RELATING TO CONSUMER INFORMATION The ILWU Local 142 strongly supports S.B. 1086, SD1, which requires sliced, sandwich-style bread products that have been baked and then frozen to be labeled "previously frozen" and prohibits bread that has been frozen to be labeled or advertised as "fresh." The II.WU represents almost 300 members who work at Love's Bakery in production, driver-sales, office clerical work, and the thrift stores. Many ofthem have worked at the bakery for many years under various owners. Today, the company is owned and managed by a local team that invested its own money to keep this manufacturing company viable. For 160 years, Love's Bakery has put fresh sandwich bread on our table. It was only in the last decade that previously frozen bread took over a greater share ofthe market. However, the consumer was never informed that the previously frozen bread was baked on the mainland, then frozen and later thawed before sale. The consumer did not have the information needed to make an informed choice. This lack ofinformation has given previously frozen bread an unfair advantage over fresh bread. S.B. 1086, SDI will require that packaging ofpreviously frozen and thawed sliced, sandwich-style bread be imprinted with the words "previously frozen." With this information, consumers can ask their own questions, then make an informed decision about which bread to purchase.

    DAVID Y. IGE PANKAJ BHANOT GOVERNOR DIRECTOR CATHY BETTS DEPUTY DIRECTOR STATE OF HAWAII DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES P. O. Box 339 Honolulu, Hawaii 96808 February 13, 2018 TO: The Honorable John M. Mizuno, Chair House Committee on Health and Human Services The Honorable Aaron Ling Johanson, Chair House Committee on Labor and Public Employment FROM: Pankaj Bhanot, Director SUBJECT: HB 2204 - RELATING TO HUMAN SERVICES Hearing: Tuesday, February 13, 2018, 8:35 a.m. Conference Room 329, State Capitol DEPARTMENT’S POSITION: The Department of Human Services (DHS) supports the intent of this bill and provides comments. PURPOSE: The purpose of this bill is to establish a task force that shall develop a restructured welfare payment system; re-establishes the exit and retention bonus program to encourage welfare recipients to transition back into the workforce; and appropriates funds. The Financial Assistance Advisory Council (FAAC) was established in accordance with section 346-14.5, Hawaii Revised Statutes. The purpose of the FAAC is to render advice and information relating to the financial assistance programs. The proposed task force will be duplicative of what is already established in the Hawaii Revised Statutes. The department suggests that the committees consider utilizing the FAAC for this purpose, rather than establishing a task force. Regarding the exit and retention bonus program, in October 2006, DHS implemented the “Reward Works” initiative which included the exit and retention bonus payments. The bonuses were based on a family’s average number of employment hours per week. The Reward Works initiative ended February 1, 2012 because DHS did not have funds to fiscally sustain the exit and retention bonuses.

BOX 259 HONOLULU, HAWAII 96809 PHONE NO: (808) 587-1540 FAX NO: (808) 587-1560 To: The Honorable Angus L.K. McKelvey, Chair; The Honorable Lisa Kitagawa, Vice Chair; and Members of the House Committee on Economic Development & Business From: Rona M. Suzuki, Director Department of Taxation Re: S.B. 2697, S.D. 1, Relating to Taxation of Real Estate Investment Trusts Date: Friday, March 13, 2020 Time: 9:45 A.M. Place: Conference Room 309, State Capitol The Department of Taxation (Department) appreciates the intent of S.B. 2697, S.D. 1, and provides the following comments. S.B. 2697, S.D. 1, repeals the dividends paid deduction that real estate investment trusts (REITs) are allowed by current law, except REITs for which 100 percent of the property owned is used to provide affordable housing in Hawaii. This will subject affected REITs’ income to the Hawaii corporate income tax in the same manner as other corporations. The measure is effective July 1, 2050 and applies to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2020. The bill sunsets on December 31, 2023. The Department of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism (DBEDT) is responsible for economic development, including the role of REITs. The Department of Taxation is responsible for administering the tax laws in a fair, consistent, and efficient manner. Therefore, the Department defers to DEBDT on the substantive merits of the bill.
