Create a legislature website 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.
