Submitting for consideration and confirmation to the Hawai'i Technology Development Corporation, Gubernatorial Nominee, JACLYN KAINA, for a term to expire 06-30-2028.
This is a gubernatorial nomination submission (not a legislative bill), where Governor Josh Green has submitted Jaclyn Kaina for confirmation to serve on the Hawai'i Technology Development Corporation. The nomination requires Senate confirmation under Hawaii Constitution Article V, Section 6, and would appoint Ms. Kaina to a position with a term expiring June 30, 2028. This procedural step directly affects the Governor's authority to fill the position and the Senate's confirmation role. The submission does not create new policy or impact public law.
