Rule by Decree: Is Hawaii’s Democracy Broken?

Is Hawaii’s democracy broken?

Here is one day of ‘emergency’ proclamations from Hawaii Governor Josh Green — all dated July 29, 2025:

• Proclamation Relating to the July 29, 2025, Kamchatka Tsunami
• TWENTY-SECOND PROCLAMATION RELATING TO AXIS DEER
• FOURTEENTH PROCLAMATION RELATING TO UNCLE BILLY’S HILO BAY HOTEL
• EIGHTEENTH PROCLAMATION RELATING TO HOMELESSNESS
• FOURTEENTH PROCLAMATION RELATING TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING
• EIGHTH PROCLAMATION RELATING TO CONDOMINIUM INSURANCE STABILIZATION

Do the math: 1+22+14+18+14+8 = 77 emergencies.  Each one suspends Hawaii state laws.
