"The legislative session ends on May 3rd, and there is still time to have your voices heard!

The Hawai`i Innovation Initiative has been at the forefront of many discussions, specifically innovation in education and our economy.
Our Administration has also proposed many important initiatives to help Hawai`i residents and businesses.

We proposed hundreds of millions of dollars to continue addressing the affordable housing shortage and homelessness.  We brought the pressing issue of accessible healthcare to the table as well as an enhanced emergency preparedness package.  And, our comprehensive tax-relief plan will assist those who need it most.

Call, email and visit your state legislators to voice your support for these important initiatives.  Let this session be remembered for passing meaningful legislation that will improve the quality of life for all Hawai`i residents, for now and for the future!"
