Entrance to the Hawaii State Senate chamber

The Hawaiʻi State Senate is the upper chamber of the Hawaiʻi State Legislature which governs from Honolulu, Hawaiʻi, USA. There are twenty-five members from various electoral districts. It is led by the President of the Senate elected from the membership of the Senate, currently Colleen Hanabusa. The forerunner of the Hawaiʻi State Senate during the government of the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi was the House of Nobles. Senators are elected to four-year terms and are not subject to term limits. Like in most state legislatures in the United States, the Hawaiʻi State Senate is a part-time body and senators often have active careers outside of government. The lower chamber of the legislature is the Hawaiʻi State House of Representatives.
