AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Campaign Spending: Hawaii’s carpenters’ political committees spent more than $14.8 million in this year’s elections, but major bets on Maui and Kauai races failed. Small-Business Aid: Federal disaster loans are available to Hawaii businesses and nonprofits facing losses from 2026 drought; applications are due Dec. 10. Travel Alert: State consumer officials warn buyers to avoid speculative ticket listings, which can leave visitors out hundreds of dollars if promised tickets never arrive. Housing: Factory-built homes are gaining traction in Hawaii, with a Maui project expected to save buyers about $45,000 per home and finish months sooner. Permitting Debate: Hawaii advocates oppose a federal reform bill they say could weaken environmental safeguards; Sens. Mazie Hirono and Brian Schatz split on advancing it. Air Travel: Flights to Hawaii resumed after a nationwide FAA ground stop, though airlines warned recovery would take time.
