Find Your Legislator
At an Open Government workshop during the 2013 Hawaii Digital Government Summit, members of the public were asked “What information does the public want the government to provide?”
State Sen. Jill Tokuda, leading the breakout group on legislative information, reported that members of her group were very interested in an Application that helps Hawaii citizens and residents find their legislative representatives. In response to that request, the state Office of Planning and GIS vendor ESRI developed these public interest Applications (“Apps”) on this website, which is also accessible and optimized for use on mobile devices.
The applications are updated at the start of each legislative session (more frequently, if needed) with current legislative information.
