At the direction of the President of the United States, I’ve ordered the United States flag and the Hawai‘i State flag to be flown at half-staff as a mark of respect for the victims who were killed in a shooting this morning in San Jose. The flags will be lowered until May 30. https://t.co/2dqVrPiBfy — PolitiTweet.org

@okaynowhi The data page also features info for the Housing Inventory County & data about exits to permanent housing. In 2017, we implemented performance metrics for service providers that increased exits to permanent housing from one-third of people exiting homeless programs to over-half. — PolitiTweet.org

We do highly recommend mask wearing if you are in large groups, even if you’re outdoors. The indoor mandate will remain in place for a little longer as we get more people in our communities vaccinated, but we are getting closer. — PolitiTweet.org

Office of the Governor, State of Hawai`i @GovHawaii

Today I announced that Hawaiʻi is dropping its mask mandate in outdoor settings – effective immediately. This is across all islands. I spoke with county mayors and we agree this is the right next step. We’ve been seeing fewer cases of COVID and have made progress on vaccinations. https://t.co/baxuwwlNcD — PolitiTweet.org

Today I signed two bills into law. HB961 streamlines the process to obtain a temporary license for a military spouse in good standing with another state – allowing Hawaiʻi to tap qualified professionals to fill shortages, such as social workers, counselors, and physicians. (1/2) — PolitiTweet.org

Searching for work is normally a requirement to receiving unemployment benefits. During the pandemic, the rule was loosened. Now that things are starting to reopen and our economy recovers, the state will be re-instating the requirement to search for work beginning May 30. https://t.co/7k3HaHGpVw — PolitiTweet.org
