Hawaiian Organic Act
The Hawaiian Organic Act was a law of the United States Congress, passed in April 1900, that established the Territory of Hawaii after the annexation of 1898. It granted US citizenship to citizens of the former Republic of Hawaii and created an elected territorial legislature, while the governor was appointed by the president. It remained in force until Hawaii became a state in 1959.
