MODERATE

This bill transitions from a House draft to a Senate version, updating the document metadata and correcting a grammatical error in the title. The most significant change involves the removal of an entire section dedicated to Employment and Labor programs, which were likely already funded or handled differently in this version. Additionally, numerous specific funding amounts for various state agencies, including tourism and agriculture, were adjusted, with some line items showing reduced allocations and others showing new investment capital designations.

Scope change

The bill's scope was narrowed by removing the entire 'Employment' section (Section B), which previously covered workforce development, unemployment insurance, and labor relations. The remaining sections focus on supplemental appropriations for tourism, agriculture, natural resources, and transportation facilities.

FISCAL

Deleted the entire 'Employment' section (Section B), removing all specific funding line items for workforce development, unemployment insurance, and labor relations programs.

Adjusted operating and investment capital funding amounts for multiple agencies, including the Hawaii Tourism Authority and Department of Agriculture, with some specific line items showing reduced allocations compared to the previous version.

TECHNICAL

Corrected a grammatical error in Section 1 by adding the word 'be' to the act's title.

Updated document metadata, including changing the bill status from House Draft (HD1) to Senate Draft (SD1) and updating associated revision numbers and dates.

DEFINITION

Added the word 'that' to the definition of 'expending agency' in Section 2 to improve grammatical clarity.
