GM 705 Hawaii Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Submitting for consideration and confirmation to the Hawai'i Medical Board, Gubernatorial Nominee, ANDREW FONG, for a term to expire 06-30-2027.

This is a procedural nomination submission (GM 705), not a legislative bill. Governor Josh Green submitted Andrew Fong for confirmation to the Hawai'i Medical Board, with a term expiring June 30, 2027. The submission follows constitutional requirements for gubernatorial nominations requiring Senate confirmation. This action directly affects the Hawai'i Medical Board's membership and the governor's authority to appoint board members. The Senate must now consider and confirm Fong's appointment.
