Submitting for consideration and confirmation to the State Council on Mental Health, Gubernatorial Nominee, KATHLEEN MERRIAM, for a term to expire 06-30-2028.

This is a gubernatorial nomination for Kathleen Merriam to serve on Hawaii's State Council on Mental Health, with a term ending June 30, 2028. The Governor has formally submitted her nomination to the Senate for confirmation, as required by Hawaii's Constitution (Article V, Section 6). The Senate must vote to confirm her appointment before she can assume the role. This procedural submission does not create new policy but follows standard confirmation requirements for state council positions.
