Informing the Legislature that on July 9, 2024, the Governor signed the following bill into law: SB2197 SD1 HD1 CD1 (ACT 249).

This document is a formal message from the Governor of Hawaii to the Legislature announcing that he signed SB2197 into law on July 9, 2024. The enacted bill amends state statutes to provide a clearer definition of "advance gambling activity," which covers actions such as helping set up gambling games, providing equipment, or having control over premises used for gambling. The law includes a sunset provision that will automatically repeal these new definitions on July 1, 2029, restoring the statute to its previous form.
