Bill Summary · HB 112

Legislative bill overview

HB 112 is a Hawaii bill relating to the Department of Health that was introduced in January 2025 but lacks publicly available detailed information about its specific provisions. The bill has been referred to the Health (HLT) and Finance (FIN) committees and was carried over to the 2026 legislative session without passage.

Why is this important

Bills referred to both Health and Finance committees typically involve healthcare policy changes with budgetary implications, which could affect public health services, regulations, or departmental operations in Hawaii. The fact that it was carried over suggests either ongoing deliberation or lower priority status among legislators.

Potential points of contention

  • Without access to the bill's full text, specific contentious provisions cannot be identified; however, bills affecting the Department of Health often involve debates around healthcare access, affordability, or regulatory burden
  • Finance committee referral indicates potential fiscal impact that may require resource allocation discussions
  • The dual committee referral suggests coordination challenges or complexity requiring input from multiple policy areas
