Summary

The resolution directs the Department of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism (DBEDT) to prepare and deliver a yearly report on Hawaii’s Genuine Progress Indicator (HI GPI) at least 30 days before the Legislature convenes. The report must include an executive summary, detailed indicator results, methodology, policy implications, and a data appendix, and be posted online and sent to relevant committee chairs. This aims to give lawmakers a broader view of the state’s economic, social, and environmental well‑being beyond traditional GDP measures.
