Bill > SB3104

This bill allows the Governor to enter the State into the multistate Nurse Licensure Compact, effective January 1, 2026. This will allow nurses licensed in their home state to practice under a multistate licensure privilege in each party state. Beginning January 1, 2026, the State Board of Nursing may charge different fees for registered nurses and licensed practical nurses who hold a multistate license issued by the State. Additionally, the bill requires nurses holding a multistate license issued by a state other than Hawaii and employed by healthcare facilities in Hawaii to complete demographic data surveys as a condition of employment, and for healthcare facilities to report such employees to the Board of Nursing.
