REQUESTING A COMMITMENT TO A NUCLEAR-FREE, SUSTAINABLE FUTURE.

HCR 93 is a formal statement (concurrent resolution) passed by Hawaii's House of Representatives, requesting the legislature commit to upholding the state's constitutional ban on nuclear power and prioritizing renewable energy. It does not create new laws but formally opposes nuclear energy due to safety risks (including transport hazards, geological instability, and unproven reactor technologies), cost concerns, and incompatibility with Hawaii's 100% renewable energy goal by 2045. The resolution directs officials - including the Governor and county mayors - to honor this commitment and focus resources on proven clean energy solutions like solar and wind. It specifically rejects nuclear energy as "carbon-free" (citing uranium mining emissions) and warns against unproven reactor types like Small Modular Reactors.
