Informing the Legislature that on June 28, 2024, the Governor signed the following bill into law: SB3109 SD1 HD2 CD1 (ACT 125).

This bill formally notifies the Hawaii Legislature that Governor Josh Green signed Act 125 into law on June 28, 2024. The legislation addresses the expiration of $600 million in state funds originally intended to reduce the long waiting list for Hawaiian Home Lands. It establishes a special fund to hold unspent money from the previous appropriation and allows these funds to remain available until June 30, 2026, rather than lapsing immediately. The money in this new fund can be used to develop land, purchase existing units, provide financial assistance to applicants, or offer mortgage and rental subsidies to help people secure homes.
