STATE OF HAWAII

A BILL FOR AN ACT

RELATING TO PRINCE JONAH KUHIO KALANIANAOLE.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:

SECTION 1. The legislature recognizes that Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole led efforts to convince the United States Congress to pass the Hawaiian Homes Commission Act of 1920, under which the department of Hawaiian home lands was created. The legislature finds that as 2020 is the centennial anniversary for the drafting of the Act, it is appropriate to honor Prince Kuhio's legacy as the author of the Act.

The purpose of this Act is to require certain public buildings on Hawaiian home lands to display portraits of Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole.

SECTION 2. Chapter 27, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by adding a new section to be appropriately designated and to read as follows:

"§27- Prince Kuhio; portraits; buildings. (a) Any public building or structure that is:

(1) Located within feet of a mass transit project that receives moneys from a surcharge on state tax established pursuant to section 46-16.8; and

(2) Located on Hawaiian home lands,

shall display a portrait of Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole."

SECTION 3. New statutory material is underscored.

SECTION 4. This Act shall take effect on July 1, 2020.

INTRODUCED BY:
