GLENDA STREUFERT,

for a term to expire 06-30-2024,

 

begs leave to report as follows:

     Your Committee received testimony in support of the nomination for the appointment of Glenda Streufert from the Hawaii Emergency Management Agency.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee, after full consideration of the background, experience, and qualifications of the nominee, has found the nominee to be qualified for the position to which nominated and recommends that the Senate advise and consent to the nomination.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs,
