Legislature Considers Foregoing Extra Pay for Session
The Hawaii legislature weighs forgoing extra pay to fund an anticipated special session with a $20,400 appropriation. Chairman A. G. Robertson says most island members favor withholding additional compensation, while Senator-elect Eric Knudsen backs a possible special session and tax reform focus. Knudsen notes a push to tax corporations where they do business, and the Hallor bill’s status draws little interest. Serratory Atkinson appeared at the Capitol, reporting mixed reactions.
