Capitol building is open after three years

/

After three years and four sessions, the capitol building is open to the public once again.

The building will be open Monday - Friday, 7am-5pm. A photo ID will be now required for entry into the building. Face masks are recommended while visiting the capitol building and may be required in some conference rooms and other indoor spaces. Please refer to posted signage for guidance. Parking at the Capitol is limited to authorized personnel. Public parking is available in Lot V (Vineyard Garage on Punchbowl); Lot G (Kalanimoku Building on Beretania & Punchbowl); and Lot L (Kinau Hale Building on Punchbowl).

The Legislature will be accepting written, videoconference, and in-person testimony. Livestreams and on-demand recordings will be available for committee hearings and floor sessions.

Create a capitol account

/

Creating an account on the Hawaiʻi State Legislature website is the best way to ensure your voice is heard. The website is user friendly and registering yourself will allow you to submit testimony without the need to re-enter required information, create personalized measure tracking lists, and receive official hearing notices directly to your inbox.

If you have participated in the legislature before, you likely already have an account and you do not need to create a new account every year.

You can also helpful documents on navigating the capitol website, writing and submitting testimony, committee schedules, calendar and more on the Public Access Room’s website here.
