Senate President Shan Tustsui has a viewpoint in The Maui News about Senate Bill 2012 — The Invest in Hawaii Act of 2012:

Sound investments that spell big savings for the state are one of the numerous ways in which the Senate seeks to fulfill its vision of breathing new life into our economy, transforming the way we operate, and building a better and more sustainable Hawaii.

SB 2012 has passed the Senate and now awaits House consideration.
