Josh Green: “Hawaiʻi has been a leader in this fight for years.”

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

We cannot wait for every damaged road, utility pole, harbor and public facility to be assigned a dollar value before asking the federal government to act.

Pat Saiki’s six decades of public service and her pioneering example for young women and Asian Americans in Hawaiʻi and across the U.S., combine to form both a lasting, inspiring legacy and a high bar for all of us who serve the public.

Governor Josh Green is actively coordinating state, federal and county recovery efforts to ensure rapid and efficient response, including infrastructure repair, emergency support, financial relief and long-term resilience planning.
