STAND. COM. REP. NO.  1254-12

 

Honolulu, Hawaii

                , 2012

 

RE:   S.B. No. 2268

 

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Sixth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2012

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Hawaiian Affairs, to which was referred S.B. No. 2268 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO QUEEN LILIUOKALANI,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to modify the inscription on the memorial statue of Queen Liliuokalani on the grounds of the State Capitol to reflect the dates of her coronation on January 29, 1891, to the date of her death on November 11, 1917. 

 

     Currently, the inscription, "Queen of Hawaii 1891-1893", reflects the dates of her coronation and the overthrow of the Government of Hawaii.  

 

     The Office of Hawaiian Affairs and Association of Hawaiian Civic Clubs supported the measure.  A concerned individual opposed the measure.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Hawaiian Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2268 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Finance.

 

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Hawaiian Affairs,
