Healthcare Access: Gov. Josh Green signed HB 1969 to remove out-of-pocket barriers for follow-up colonoscopies after positive colorectal cancer screenings, and also set up financial help for uninsured and underinsured residents. Local Enforcement: Hawaii’s Department of Health ordered ABC Towing & Parts in Pearl City to stop accumulating solid waste and clean up its site, citing unapproved operations and major storage problems. Public Health & Safety: DOH issued a closure order for Black Rock Pizza in Kona after inspectors found an active rodent infestation and critical sanitation violations. Environment & Wildlife: A new UH study warns tourism and human activity off Hawaii Island may be suppressing spinner dolphin calf survival, with only about 9% calves found versus an expected 17%. Local Politics: Honolulu City Council voted to override Mayor Rick Blangiardi’s veto and cut the Office of Economic Revitalization funding again, after an audit questioned the office’s results. Community & Culture: Two Hawaii Island students were selected for a Boston fellowship to help draft a national AI policy for public schools. Business/Regulation: The state is seeking about $475,000 in fines against a Pearl City junkyard after months of violations tied to expanded waste processing.
