SUPPORTING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS FROM ALL CYCLES OF THE UNIVERSAL PERIODIC REVIEW BY THE UNITED NATIONS HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL, WHERE APPLICABLE TO THE STATE.
This is a non-binding Hawaii Senate resolution (SR 124) expressing support for implementing recommendations from the United Nations Human Rights Council's Universal Periodic Review (UPR) process, where relevant to the state. It urges Hawaii officials to consider these recommendations in state policy but does not create new laws, funding, or enforceable obligations. The resolution requests transmission of a certified copy to the UN Secretary-General, Human Rights High Commissioner, and Hawaii's congressional delegation. As a symbolic gesture, it aligns Hawaii with international human rights standards without specifying concrete policy changes.
