Governor Josh Green

Investigative journalist James O’Keefe recently went undercover in Lahaina, Hawaii, and had his First Amendment violated by Maui police who told him that he could not film beyond a certain boundary and that the order was given by Governor Josh Green who had issued an emergency proclamation.

Hawaii Governor Josh Green's 'Build Beyond Barriers' program was created under an emergency proclamation to bypass local zoning and building regulations to quickly approve affordable housing. Critics say that it is a land grab by the state.

Hawaiian Governor Josh Green said, "....as we deal with the reality that there are going to be fires month in and month out, for the decades to come, and not just in Hawaii, but all across the country." Critics are concerned that man-made fires are being planned.
