GM 620 Hawaii Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Submitting for consideration and confirmation to the Stadium Authority, Gubernatorial Nominee, MICHAEL IMANAKA, for a term to expire 06-30-2029.

This is a procedural nomination, not a legislative bill. Governor Josh Green has submitted Michael Imanaka for confirmation to serve on the Hawaii Stadium Authority, with his term set to expire on June 30, 2029. The submission requires the Senate's confirmation under Hawaii's Constitution before Imanaka can assume the position. This process directly affects the Stadium Authority's leadership and the Governor's ability to fill a vacant seat.
