Informing the Legislature that on June 4, 2026, the Governor signed the following bill into law: SB2466 HD2 CD1 (ACT 082).
This bill informs the Hawaii Legislature that Governor Josh Green signed Act 082 into law on June 4, 2026. The law modifies the state's election code to ensure the Chief Elections Officer can only be removed from their position for cause, rather than at-will. It requires the elections commission to provide written notification of any removal along with the specific reasons for the action. This change directly affects the job security and removal process for the state's top election official.
