How is Hawaii's biennium supplemental budget bill HB 1800 moving through the Legislature?

The House passed HB 1800, the supplemental state budget, on May 6, 2026 and sent it to the governor after weeks of Finance Committee amendments. A companion revenue bill, SB 3125, cleared a House floor debate on May 8, 2026, preserving previously enacted tax cuts while capping the renewable-energy tax credit — a change that drew opposition from members who warned it would destabilize solar projects mid-build. Earlier floor fights on the underlying budget in March and April featured a defeated tax-cut restoration amendment and no-votes over an unfinished Kahali initiative audit.
