Gov Disses HSTA, Activists in Kona Talk

By /
That’s according to a West Hawaii Today article.

First paragraph:

Gov. Neil Abercrombie took on a triumvirate of state touchstones Thursday, criticizing “self-designated” Hawaiian activists, challenging environmental protection regulations and touting his labor bonafides while criticizing the state teachers’ union.

Additional excerpt of note:

He went on to defend Senate Bill 755, which began as an unrelated measure but now proposes to give the governor broad leeway to exempt projects from environmental review.
