Submitting for consideration and confirmation to the State Rehabilitation Council, Gubernatorial Nominee, JAMES MONTGOMERY, for a term to expire 06-30-2027.
Bill GM 567 submits Governor Josh Green's nomination of James Montgomery for appointment to the Hawaii State Rehabilitation Council, with a term expiring June 30, 2027. This procedural bill requires the Senate to review and confirm the appointment before Montgomery can serve. The nomination directly affects the State Rehabilitation Council, which advises the state on rehabilitation services, and Montgomery if confirmed. The bill does not create new policy but follows standard confirmation procedures for state council appointments.
