Josh Green: “Hawai‘i can be proud that we have so many well-qualified female judges.”

Hawaiʻi is facing this storm while continuing response and recovery operations from several prior disasters.

It’s also background and experience that I was looking for to balance the court carefully this time.

The trio of storms did severe damage to our islands, destroying homes, wiping out major roads, even devastating the places where we bury and honor our loved ones.

Protecting the people of Hawaiʻi is our highest priority and this approval gives our state and counties the additional federal support needed to act before conditions deteriorate.
