Bill Summary · GM 1271

Legislative bill overview

Bill GM 1271 is an informational message to the Hawaii Legislature notifying it that Governor signed SB1195 SD1 HD2 CD1 into law on June 3, 2025, designating it as Act 171. The bill itself contains no substantive policy content—it is purely a notification mechanism informing legislators that legislation has been enacted.

Why is this important

This type of notification bill creates an official legislative record that a bill has passed all procedural requirements and become law. While procedurally routine, such notifications ensure transparency and allow the legislature to track which bills have been signed and their final designated act numbers for reference and codification purposes.

Potential points of contention

  • This is a procedural notification bill with no policy substance, so there are no inherent points of contention regarding its content
  • The actual policy debate would have occurred during SB1195's consideration through multiple amendments (SD1, HD2, CD1 indicate Senate and House amendments)
  • Without access to SB1195's actual provisions, substantive concerns cannot be evaluated from this notification alone
