Coalition’s letter to the federal and Hawaiʻi state governments charges United States’ militarism with the perpetuation of violence and oppression across the Pacific.

With Governor Ige's signature, SB3095 will become law and Hawaiʻi will lead the nation in establishing pesticide regulatory policy that protects the health and safety of its people and environment.

Her challenger is also a woman leader with a military background and a strong environmental track record.

The land board’s acquiescence to corporate control of Hawaiʻi's resources represents the state’s continuing failure to uphold its fiduciary duties.

The regulatory agencies found serious flaws in sections of the Navy plan to investigate and remediate leaks in the Red Hill Bulk Fuel Storage Facility, and to protect and evaluate the safety of groundwater feeding into Honolulu’s main aquifer.

“We the undersigned firmly oppose the continued destruction of Hawaiʻi and all First Nations lands at the hands of governments, corporations and militaries which prioritize money over the health and well-being of people and the environment.”

“People Over Profits” unites broad progressive coalition; hundreds converge on Hawaiʻi’s State Capitol.

The demonstration emphasized the connection between—and convergence of—the issues of social justice, labor, indigenous rights, environmental stewardship and human rights.

If progressives can push all the democratic presidential candidates to oppose the TPP, including Hillary Clinton, it could go a long way in flipping more Congressional democrats from yes to no.

The newly-formed coalition includes groups from the labor rights, environmental protection, Native Hawaiian sovereignty, food justice, and social justice movements.

The state's 90,000 cesspools pose a constant risk to public and environmental health. New rules aim to reduce their numbers.

A bill that would have given the state broader authority to preempt county ordinances it finds inconvenient, such as those restricting biotech, failed to find enough support to pass through the senate agriculture committee.
