  • Statement of JOHN DE FRIES Hawai'i Tourism Authority Before The
    Statement of JOHN DE FRIES Hawai‘i Tourism Authority before the SENATE COMMITTEE ON ENERGY, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, AND TOURISM SENATE COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC SAFETY, INTERGOVERNMENTAL, AND MILITARY AFFAIRS SENATE COMMITTEE ON HEALTH Monday, March 22, 2021 3:00 PM State Capitol, Conference Room #224 via videoconference In consideration of HOUSE BILL NO. 1286 HD2 RELATING TO TRAVEL Chairs Wakai, Nishihara, and Keohokālole; Vice Chairs Misalucha, English, and Baker; and members of the Senate Committee on Energy, Economic Development, and Tourism; Senate Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs; and Senate Committee on Health: the Hawai‘i Tourism Authority (HTA) is providing comments on House Bill 1286 HD2, which exempts any person from the post-arrival mandatory self-quarantine if the person receives a negative test result prior to arrival. It allows the governor to establish statewide conditions for an exemption. It requires certain COVID-19 tests for travelers who do not have a test result upon arrival to avoid mandatory self-quarantine. It also requires any person who does not obtain a negative test result for COVID-19 pre-arrival to be responsible for all costs associated with that person's mandatory self-quarantine. This bill would standardize the protocols across the state for all travelers to Hawai‘i and between the counties, which would help to make it less confusing for everyone. There are different protocols for trans-Pacific travelers and interisland travelers, which have been a challenge to navigate and understand. A consistent statewide policy for trans-Pacific and interisland travel that is based on protecting the people and communities of Hawai‘i is a prudent approach.

No. 1321 Relating to Gaming Thank you for the opportunity to submit testimony on this bill, which would license a gaming resort on Hawaiian home lands and establish a Hawaii Gaming Commission. The Office of Information Practices (OIP) takes no position on the substance of this bill, but has concerns regarding a provision providing complete confidentiality for financial information in a gaming license application, and a confusing special meeting provision for the Commission that may conflict with the Sunshine Law. Therefore, OIP has suggested amendments to the bill for the following reasons. Proposed subsection __-8(b), at page 33, lines 1-8, would provide complete confidentiality for all financial information submitted as part of a license application. For privately held companies, most if not all financial information included in a license or grant application or a contract bid can be withheld as confidential business information under the Uniform Information Practices Act in any case, but this provision would require confidentiality even for published financial information, such as the public filings a publicly held company must make or puffery about a company’s holdings from a sales brochure. It would be ridiculous Senate Committee on Hawaiian Affairs February 11, 2021 Page 2 of 3 to treat such information as confidential.

    April 21, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker of the House Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 The Honorable Charles Schumer The Honorable Mitch McConnell Majority Leader Minority Leader U.S. Senate U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Speaker Pelosi, Majority Leader Schumer, Minority Leader McCarthy, and Minority Leader McConnell: We, the undersigned state and local officials, are asking Congress to seize a once-in-a-generation opportunity to help our communities recover by creating and sustaining millions of good paying jobs, putting us on the path to 100% clean energy and building a more equitable and just society. We applaud President Biden and Congress for passing COVID relief, including desperately needed state and local government funding and expanded vaccinations. The American Rescue Plan was a vital first step but as state and local leaders we know the everyday reality facing our communities. There is still much more to be done to deliver the recovery our communities need and deserve, while tackling the interconnected crises of climate change, economic inequality, and racial injustice. The country needs a large-scale jobs and recovery package to put millions back to work. We can make transformative investments in sustainable infrastructure and buildings, clean energy, and clean manufacturing to reduce pollution, address environmental injustice, and prepare for the threats of climate change. Clean energy is the fastest-growing industry in America. It can revitalize domestic manufacturing and expand high-quality union jobs to help rebuild the middle class.
