Increases the state income tax check-off amount for the Hawaii election campaign fund to $6.

The bill amends the Hawaii election campaign fund by increasing the state income tax check-off amount to $6, up from $3. This change allows individual taxpayers with a state income tax liability of $6 or more to designate $6 of their liability to the fund. Spouses on joint returns can each designate $6, totaling $12. The bill also revises the individual state income tax form to include this designation option on the face of the tax return, with a clear explanation that it does not constitute an additional tax liability. This change applies to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025.
