URGING THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION TO PROVIDE INFORMATION TO STUDENTS ON HOW TO PREREGISTER TO VOTE PRIOR TO REACHING VOTING AGE.
This bill urges the Hawaii Department of Education to provide students with information on how to preregister to vote before they reach voting age. It specifically requests that schools distribute materials on voter eligibility, registration procedures, and opportunities to volunteer at voter service centers. The resolution also asks the department to designate the last two weeks of September as a dedicated period for voter registration activities and to ensure resources are available for students with disabilities. This measure is non-binding and does not mandate any specific actions, instead serving as a formal recommendation to the education department.
