Gov. Josh Green of Hawaii has vetoed a provision, cutting back $500 million in state spending, after the Council on Revenues reduced its outlook for the state's revenue.
Gov. Josh Green
Lawmakers passed the budget in May at the end of the last legislative session. But later that month, the Council on Revenues reduced its outlook for the state's tax revenue. Green said he agrees that the agency's headquarters needs improvement and the state needs to upgrade its cybersecurity. But he expressed concerns that total costs for the campus could balloon to $500 million and that Honolulu police have indicated they don't want to use the site. He said there should be more public debate about the project.
