INSIGHTS ON PBS HAWAIʻI
Should the Legislature be full-time?
Hawaiʻi’s Legislature is comprised of 25 members in the Senate and 51 in the House of Representatives. The body meets in a 60-day session running from January to early May to draft, debate and pass state laws. Is that enough time for elected officials to make decisions on complex issues? Should the Legislature be full-time, meeting throughout the year? What do you think?
