URGING THE HAWAII STATE LEGISLATURE TO ESTABLISH A STATE DEPARTMENT OF GOVERNMENT EFFICIENCY.
HCR 169 is a resolution urging Hawaii's legislature to establish a State Department of Government Efficiency. It cites voter sentiment (77% supporting spending reviews, 83% favoring cuts over tax hikes) and a projected $5.6 billion revenue loss from tax cuts by 2031. The resolution emphasizes addressing past inefficiencies in state spending to ensure taxpayer dollars are used effectively. It does not create the department but formally requests the legislature take this action.
