Bill Summary · HB 45

Legislative bill overview

HB 45 is a Hawaii insurance bill introduced by Representative Scot Matayoshi that has been carried over from the 2025 legislative session to the 2026 Regular Session. The bill's specific provisions are not detailed in the provided action history, making a complete assessment of its substantive content impossible without access to the full bill text.

Why is this important

Insurance legislation directly affects Hawaii residents' access to coverage, premium costs, and consumer protections. The bill's referral to the Consumer Protection Committee (CPC) suggests it addresses consumer-related insurance matters that could impact the general public, though the exact nature of those impacts cannot be determined without reviewing the actual bill language.

Potential points of contention

  • Lack of transparency in this summary: The bill information provided does not include the actual text or stated purpose, making it impossible to identify specific areas of disagreement or controversy
  • Unknown regulatory scope: Without knowing whether the bill affects health, auto, property, or another insurance sector, stakeholder concerns cannot be meaningfully assessed
  • Need for full bill text: Meaningful legislative analysis requires access to the complete bill language, sponsor statements, and committee analyses
