AMENDING RULE 16 OF THE RULES OF THE SENATE OF THE THIRTY-THIRD LEGISLATURE, REGULAR SESSION OF 2026, OF THE STATE OF HAWAII.

This Senate Resolution (SR 2) amends the Senate Rules to clarify the responsibilities of the Committee on Public Safety and Military Affairs (PSM). It explicitly adds "military and veterans' affairs" to the committee's scope and removes the phrase "county and federal relations" from its description. The change affects how the Senate organizes its committee structure, specifying which topics fall under the PSM committee's jurisdiction. This is a procedural adjustment to Senate rules, not a substantive policy change affecting constituents or laws.
