Bill Summary · SB 1363

Legislative bill overview

SB 1363 is a funding adjustment bill for Hawaii state programs introduced by Senator Ron Kouchi. The measure was referred to the Ways and Means (WAM) committee but was deferred and carried over to the 2026 Regular Session without passage.

Why is this important

Budget adjustment bills directly affect the allocation of state resources across government agencies and programs. Without access to the bill's specific details, the actual impact depends on which programs receive increased, decreased, or redirected funding—potentially affecting services from education to infrastructure.

Potential points of contention

  • Lack of transparency in public record: The bill's actual text and proposed funding changes are not provided, making it impossible to identify which programs gain or lose resources
  • Deferred status without explanation: The WAM committee deferred the measure, but no stated rationale is available for public understanding
  • Timing uncertainty: Carryover to 2026 session suggests either complexity requiring further deliberation or lower legislative priority relative to other funding measures
