Informing the Legislature that on June 30, 2025, the Governor signed the following bill into law: SB222 SD1 HD2 CD1 (ACT 246).

This bill extends the timeline for a state task force studying fireworks and the duration of the existing fireworks law. It amends Act 67 (enacted in 2023) to require the task force to submit interim reports before each legislative session from 2024 through 2029 and a final report before the 2030 session, with the law now expiring on June 30, 2030 (previously set for 2025). The amendment does not alter fireworks regulations but prolongs the task force’s operational period and the law’s implementation window by five years. The bill affects the task force, the legislature (via reporting requirements), and the ongoing administration of fireworks-related policies in Hawaii.
