Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Sir:
Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the Senate to the amendments proposed by the House of Representatives in S.B. No. 3111, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT ESTABLISHING A COMMISSION TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR CONGRESSWOMAN PATSY T. MINK,"
having met, and after full and free discussion, has agreed to recommend and does recommend to the respective Houses the final passage of this bill in an amended form.
The purpose of this measure is to establish a commission to recognize and honor Congresswoman Patsy T. Mink and appropriate funds for the commission.
Congresswoman Patsy T. Mink made a tremendous impact on the people of Hawaii and the nation through her illustrious career as an outstanding public servant. She is known for championing the rights of immigrants, minorities, women, families, and children, and overcame gender and racial discrimination to become one of the most influential leaders of her generation. Your Committee on Conference finds it appropriate to establish a temporary commission to recognize and honor Congresswoman Mink.
Your Committee on Conference has amended this measure by:
(1) Adopting the suggestion made by the Department of the Attorney General and deleting the provision that exempts from chapter 42F, Hawaii Revised Statutes any grant or subsidy made by the Legislature to finance the commission;
(2) Adding the amount of $10,000 to the blank appropriation; and
(3) Changing the effective date from July 1, 2020 to July 1, 2006.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the managers of your Committee on Conference that is attached to this report, your Committee on Conference is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 3111, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 3111, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, C.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
