Informing the House that on August 30, 2024, he appointed Matthias Kusch to the House, effective immediately, to serve as the Representative from the 1st House District to fill the vacancy created by the passing of Representative Mark M. Nakashima.

This bill informs the House that Governor Josh Green has appointed Matthias Kusch to represent the 1st House District, filling the vacancy left by the passing of Representative Mark M. Nakashima. The appointment allows Kusch to serve out the remainder of the current legislative term and begin a full two-year term starting in January 2025. This action is based on state law permitting the governor to appoint a replacement when a candidate filing deadline has passed and no election can be held.
