    SENATE PRESIDENT-ELECT DONNA MERCADO KIM Serving Hawai‘i’s Senate District 14 January 2013 Encompassing the following communities: Kapalama Alewa Kalihi Valley Ft. Shafter Moanalua Gardens Moanalua Valley Halawa Aiea Senator Donna Mercado Kim Selected as Senate President Senate Vice President Donna Mercado Kim (Sen. District 14) has been selected as the President of the Senate and will preside during the 27th Hawaii State Legislature, which will convene on January 16, 2013. Senator Ronald D. Kouchi (Sen. District 8) will serve as Senate Vice President. Senator David Ige (Sen. District 16) will continue as Chair of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means, with Senator Michelle Kidani (Sen. District 18) serving as his Vice Chair. On Dec. 27, 2012, former state Senate President Shan S. Tsutsui accepted the position of Lieutenant Governor of Hawaii, effective immediately under the order of succession. The office was vacated on Dec. 26, 2012 by the appointment of former Lt. Gov. Brian Schatz to the U.S. Senate. The Senate acted quickly to organize after Maui State Senator Shan Tsutsui (Sen. District 5) took the oath of office as Lieutenant Governor yesterday. The Senate line up remains mostly intact to allow members continuity in their committee work as the Senate has been preparing for the upcoming session. "We are solidified in dealing with the pressing issues facing our State. The Senate continues to be organized in a cooperative and focused manner. I’m humbled to receive the confidence and support of my colleagues" said Senate President Kim. "We reached an agreement quickly so that we can continue to focus our attention on the issues and begin preparations for the 2013 session," said Senate Vice President Kouchi.

  • New Leadership for Hawai'i and Prospects for Policy Change
    New Leadership for Hawai‘i and Prospects for Policy Change Preliminary report, do not cite without author’s permission Todd L. Belt Department of Political Science University of Hawai‘i at Hilo 200 W. Kawili St. Hilo, HI 96720-4091 [email protected] Paper prepared for delivery at the annual meeting of the Western Political Science Association, April 2-4, 2015, Las Vegas, NV. Introduction Hawai‘i’s slow economic recovery continued throughout 2014. Despite this improving economic news, voters ousted their brash and combative sitting governor, Neil Abercrombie, in the Democratic Primary. The humble and unassuming State Senator David Ige rolled to a general election victory. The new governor, an electrical engineer by training and a veteran chair of the Senate Ways and Means Committee, looked to bring less in terms of policy change and more in terms of approach to governance. Governor Ige was inaugurated on December 1, 2014, and his biennial budget needed to be released on December 22. The original request reflected a status-quo budget prepared by the outgoing Abercrombie administration. In late January, 2015, Ige’s administration put together an amended budget that slightly increased budgetary requests and expected revenues. Key legislators have thus far opted for a conservative approach to spending. In March, the House voted to trim Ige’s requests down to approximately the level of the Abercrombie’s initial request. The budget is currently being worked over in the Senate Ways and Means committee. At this point, the final budget looks to be largely similar to the governor’s budget request, with few alterations and few new programs.

    NEWS Western Legislative Academy Western Legislative Academy From Campaigning to Governing at WLA 2010 Why is governing so much harder than campaigning? According to Western Legislative Academy faculty member Phil Boyle, it’s because you can campaign on single-value solutions to problems. But in the real world of public decision making, single-value solutions are rare. Once elected, legislators face complicated problems with as many as four core values that must be considered and integrated. • Community is the “we” value that places the good of the whole at the center of policy decisions. • Liberty is the “me” or individual dimension that says personal freedoms and responsibilities Graduation night at WLA 2010 matter most in any solution. • Prosperity is the value that says policies must be market- training was the half-day spent at the U.S. Air Force Academy based to maximize economic gain and standard of living. engaged in personal style assessments and team building. • Equality places fairness, justice and tolerance at the Each year in a highly competitive process, the Western forefront of public policy.
