Sir:
Your Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs, to which was referred Governor's Message No. 546, submitting for study and consideration the nomination of:
Advisory Board on
Veterans' Services
G.M. No. 546 |
ROXANNE BRUHN, for a term to expire 06-30-2023, |
begs leave to report as follows:
Your Committee reviewed the personal history, resume, and statement submitted by Roxanne Bruhn for service on the Advisory Board on Veterans' Services.
Your Committee received testimony in support of the nomination for the appointment of Roxanne Bruhn from the State Office of Veterans Services, State Advisory Board on Veterans' Services, and six individuals.
Upon review of the testimony, your Committee finds that Ms. Bruhn's background and passion for advocating on behalf of the veteran population qualify her to be nominated for appointment to the Advisory Board on Veterans' Services. Your Committee further finds that Ms. Bruhn has over thirty-one years of distinguished service in the United State Air Force. Your Committee notes that Ms. Bruhn was an invaluable member of the State Office of Veterans Services as a staunch advocate for veterans. Your Committee also notes that while on the Hawaii Women's Military Veterans Task Force as Vice-Chair in 2012, the task force developed a viable charter, established a web page for women veterans, and participated in several key-note events that highlighted women in the military and veterans. Your Committee therefore recommends that Ms. Bruhn be appointed to the Advisory Board on Veterans' Services based on her knowledge, leadership, integrity, and dedication.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee, after full consideration of the background, experience, and qualifications of the nominee, has found the nominee to be qualified for the position to which nominated and recommends that the Senate advise and consent to the nomination.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs,
