Bill Summary · SB 924

Legislative bill overview

SB 924 is a Hawaii bill relating to public safety that was introduced in January 2025 but has not yet been enacted into law. The bill was referred to committee (PSM - likely Public Safety and Military Affairs) and subsequently carried over to the 2026 legislative session, indicating it did not advance to a vote in the 2025 session.

Why is this important

Public safety legislation directly affects law enforcement operations, community protection measures, and public resources allocation in Hawaii. The bill's advancement or failure impacts how state and local authorities address safety concerns and allocate budgets for police, emergency services, and related programs.

Potential points of contention

  • Committee referral status: The bill stalled in committee during the 2025 session, suggesting possible disagreement among legislators or stakeholder concerns that prevented advancement
  • Delayed implementation: Carrying over to 2026 may indicate either deliberate postponement for further refinement or insufficient support for passage
