Conferees plan to take House position on chiropractic licensure; board needs time to adopt rules

House and Senate Conference Committee · April 27, 2026

Summary

On SB 2050 relating to chiropractic licensure and student clinical training rules, Senate conferees said they would take the House position with a clean date to allow the Board of Chiropractic licensure time to adopt rules; committee continued the item to April 28.

Senate Bill 2050, which concerns Hawaii's Board of Chiropractic licensure and clinical training rules for chiropractic students, was discussed April 27. Senate conferees said they planned to accept the House position with a clean effective date because the licensing board needs time to adopt implementing rules.

"I'm building upon what we did in the House, so we want to take the house position with the clean date," a Senate conferee said, adding that the board needs time to make rules and thus immediate effectiveness was not appropriate. Conferees asked for one additional day to review the CD1 and scheduled the item for April 28 at 10:30 AM with the expectation they could vote then.

No final vote was recorded in the transcript excerpts. The committee's decision to adopt the House position (subject to the CD1 and board rule-making timelines) was procedural and intended to give the professional licensing board adequate time for implementation.
