Legislation in the Home Stretch (Talking Tax)
Bills on the Governor's Desk. The hosts for this show are Jay Fidell and Tom Yamachika.
\n
\nThe Hawaii Legislature is done for the year. Its last day for this session was May 5th. It has done all its work on new laws for this season. Some of the bills it finally passed have already been signed into law. Others are awaiting the Governor\u2019s action. Now the important deadlines are June 27, 2022, when the Governor needs to give notice of intent to veto a bill, and July 12, 2022, which is the deadline for the Governor to sign or veto any bills.
\nWe discuss:
\nSB 514, which proposes to give every resident a tax refund.
\nSB 3201, which radically changes how GET applies to nonprofits.
\nHB 2511, which authorizes a $600 million infusion into DHHL.
\nSB 3289, which establishes the Hawaii Retirement Savings Program.
\nSB 2475, which exempts stevedoring, wharfage, and demurrage from GET.
