Hawaii Reporter

Hawaii Reporter

In January 2016, Hawaii Reporter was reintroduced and transformed into a FREE online platform focused on entertainment. It features a diverse range of content, including opinion pieces, editorials, and in-depth articles covering business, technology, travel, the environment, entertainment, and more topics relevant to readers in Hawaii. What sets Hawaii Reporter apart from other media outlets is that it is entirely run by volunteer contributors. Unlike traditional publications, there is no editorial team; instead, individuals submit articles based on their interests and perspectives.

    Although we’re done with this year’s legislative session, there are still a few issues swirling that may shape our future legislature’s consideration of bills. One of these is the fate of an informal practice in both the House and the Senate.

    Earlier this year, about two months ago, we wrote about tax liens and a bill that was advancing in this year’s Legislature to confirm that there was a light at the end of the tunnel for tax debtors. Before 2009, Hawaii had no statute of limitations on the collection of taxes. If it was assessed, it could be collected at any time. It could be 10 years later, 20 years later, 50 years later. The debt did not go away.

    We continue our wrap-up of the 2025 Legislature by examining a report issued by the Office of the Auditor that should have gotten more attention, if not from the general public, at least from the legislators. Current law (in HRS section 23-11) requires the Office of the Auditor to analyze each special fund proposed in legislation against the criteria in HRS section 37-52.3 that apply to special funds. This year, the Auditor’s findings are in Report No. 25-05.

    Last week, we covered the key bills that made it out of the legislature and to the governors office. This week, will be looking at a few bills that passed both houses of the legislature, but did not make it through conference. Those bills may come back to haunt us next year. House Bill 476 is at the top of this week’s list. The bill would have increased the maximum capital gains rate for income tax. Now, for individuals the maximum capital gains rate is 7.25% while the top individual rate is 11%.

    Our legislature is done for the year. Bills that survived the last-minute scramble are now on their way to the Governor‘s desk, where he has until the latter part of next month to decide whether he will veto any bills. And yes, there were a few revenue raisers (meaning tax increases) and a bill that is kind of a tax cut. Senate Bill 1396, if signed into law, is going to raise our Transient Accommodations Tax by 3/4 of a percentage point.
