Honolulu, Hawaiʻi – The Hawaiʻi State Senate has scheduled twenty-four informational briefings which the Senate Ways and Means (WAM) Committee will be conducting between January 2 – 16, 2024.
The purpose of these briefings is to provide various State agencies with the platform to present budget requests to members of the WAM committee prior to the start of the 2024 Legislative Session.
“These briefings provide an opportunity for committees to hear the State’s budgetary needs and introduce them during the upcoming legislative session,” said Senator Donovan M. Dela Cruz, Chair of WAM (Senate District 17, portion of Mililani, Mililani Mauka, portion of Waipiʻo Acres, Launani Valley, Wahiawā, Whitmore Village). “They allow our Senate members to engage with various departments and counties on budget proposals to be submitted to the Legislature for consideration.”
