HOUSE COMMITTEE APPROVES BILL TO INCREASE OHA FUNDING

The House Committee on Water, Land & Hawaiian Affairs today passed out HB 402 which establishes $35 million as the Office of Hawaiian Affairs' pro rata share of the public land trust and transfers a lump sum of $139 million to OHA for underpayment of the public land trust funds.
The bill also requires the Department of Land and Natural Resources to provide an annual accounting of receipts from lands described in section 5(f) of the Admissions Act and establishes a committee to recommend the annual amount of the income and proceeds from the public land trust that OHA will receive annually. Representative Daniel Holt (Kalihi, Pālama, Iwilei, Chinatown), co-chair of the Hawaiian Caucus, issued the following statement: “This is a matter of fairness and our ability as a governing body to 'auamo kuleana (the responsibility we carry on our shoulders), this measure brings equity to decades long discussions and debates,” said Rep. Holt. The bill now moves to the Finance Committee. View news release here

End of the Session Legislative Review

The 29th Legislature is done. We have had a very productive session, moving our community forward - - $570 million for affordable rentals, $30 million for Ohana Zones, UH promise program, law enforcement standards, and over $64.3 million for capital improvement projects for District 29 - - a body of work that I am proud to stand behind.

FRESHMAN KALIHI LAWMAKER SEEKS EXPANDED COMMUNITY-BASED POLICING, FAIRER PAYDAY LOAN RATES,
Rep. Holt introduces his eleven bills for the 2017 Legislative Session

Honolulu, Hawaii - State Representative Daniel Holt (Kalihi, Palama, Iwilei, Chinatown) has introduced eleven bills for the 2017 Legislative Session, including measures on community-based policing and payday lending.
HB 653 which appropriates funds to maintain and expand the Weed and Seed program, a U.S. Department of Justice initiative that involves city, state and federal law enforcement agencies, social service agencies, businesses, nonprofit organizations, and residents to reclaim, restore, and rebuild communities by "weeding" out the criminal element, then "seeding" the community with the appropriate services.
"The Weed and Seed strategy first started in the Kalihi-Palama/Chinatown area in the early 90's and has proven to be very successful in the community," said Holt. "Throughout the years, it expanded to Wahiawa, Waipahu, 'Ewa Beach, and Wai'anae. Crime rates, drug abuse, and gang activity has gone down tremendously since then and I want to make sure that this program continues to get funding so we can continue to keep our communities safe and expand it to other areas that need it as well," Holt said.
Rep. Holt also introduced HB 380 reduces the maximum fee a check casher or payday lender may charge for deferring the deposit of a check from 15 percent to 7 percent of the face value of the check.
"Payday lending provides short-term, unsecured loans to the most vulnerable populations of our community and while it may seem to ease a hardship for the short-term, taking on these loans will create a further hardship on their financial situation. There is a disproportionate number of payday lending locations in my district and I am looking to protect our constituents from these excessively high fees," said Holt.
Holt also introduced bills regarding contractor licensing, workers' compensation, and government accountability. To see the complete list of Representative Holt's bills, go to https://goo.gl/vhxL8s.
