GM 670 Hawaii Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Submitting for consideration and confirmation to the Island Burial Council, Island of O'ahu, Gubernatorial Nominee, JULIAN AKO, for a term to expire 06-30-2029.

This is a procedural nomination submission (not a policy bill), not a legislative measure. Governor Josh Green has submitted Julian Ako's nomination for appointment to the Island Burial Council for O'ahu, with a term expiring June 30, 2029. The nomination requires the Hawaii Senate's confirmation under Article V, Section 6 of the Hawaii State Constitution. This procedural step directly affects the Governor's ability to fill the council position and the Senate's confirmation authority.
