RELATING TO CAMPAIGN FINANCE.

Summary

The bill amends Hawaii’s campaign‑finance law to allow county‑level elected officials, their candidates, and candidate committees to receive contributions from registered lobbyists even while the state legislature is in session. All other state officials, candidates and committees remain barred from such contributions during the session and the five‑day window before and after. The change creates a specific carve‑out for county‑level politics.
