RE:    GOV. MSG. NO. 626

 

 

 

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2022

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Commerce and Consumer Protection, to which was referred Governor's Message No. 626, submitting for study and consideration the nomination of: 

 

Hawai'i Board of Chiropractic

 

G.M. No. 626

ALICE OGAWA,

for a term to expire 06-30-2026,

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     Your Committee reviewed the personal history, resume, and statement submitted by Alice Ogawa for service on the Hawai‘i Board of Chiropractic.

 

     Your Committee received testimony in support of the nomination for the reappointment of Alice Ogawa from the Hawai‘i Board of Chiropractic, Waipahu Chiropractic Clinic, and one individual.

 

     Upon review of the testimony, your Committee finds that Dr. Ogawa's background, experience, and proven leadership on the Hawai‘i Board of Chiropractic qualify for reappointment to the Board as a licensed chiropractor member.  Your Committee notes that Dr. Ogawa has been a licensed chiropractor in Hawaii since 1982, currently practices on Kauai, and has over forty years of clinical and professional experience.  Your Committee further notes that Dr. Ogawa is a member of multiple professional organizations, including the Hawaii State Chiropractic Association and International Chiropractors Association.  Your Committee further finds that Dr. Ogawa has served as a member of the Hawai‘i Chiropractic Board since 2019 and her knowledge and experience will continue to enhance the effectiveness of the Board.  Your Committee therefore recommends that Alice Ogawa be reappointed to the Hawai‘i Board of Chiropractic based on her background, experience, and commitment to public service.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Commerce and Consumer Protection 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 Commerce and Consumer Protection,
