GM 503 Hawaii Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Submitting for consideration and confirmation to the Game Management Advisory Commission, Gubernatorial Nominee, JASON SANBORN, for a term to expire 06-30-2028.

This bill is a procedural nomination by Governor Josh Green for Jason Sanborn to serve on Hawaii's Game Management Advisory Commission, with a term expiring June 30, 2028. It requires the Hawaii Senate to consider and confirm the appointment as mandated by Article V, Section 6 of the Hawaii State Constitution. The nomination does not create new policy or affect public regulations - it solely pertains to filling a specific advisory position. The commission advises on wildlife management and hunting regulations, but this submission itself only seeks confirmation for the nominee.
