AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Hawaiʻi Policy Watch: Gov. Josh Green signed new laws to curb vaping and protect survivors—starting Jan. 1, 2027, Hawaii will ban sales of disposable electronic smoking devices, while manufacturers must certify FDA authorization and the state will publish an approved-product directory. Public Safety & Accountability: Green also enacted bills expanding human trafficking training requirements for the visitor industry and extending a domestic-violence pilot by creating a petty misdemeanor for abuse of a family or household member. Local Business & Community: West Maui Sports & Fishing Supply reopened in Lahaina near Lahaina Cannery, nearly three years after the 2023 fire, signaling fresh momentum for local entrepreneurs. Economy & Food: North Carolina egg producers agreed to donate about 3 million eggs to food banks after an antitrust settlement tied to manipulated egg-price benchmarks. Weather & Travel Planning: Trade winds and Small Craft Advisories persist offshore, with a higher chance of showers starting Thursday night into the weekend. Blue Economy & Jobs: Hawaii’s film industry gets a boost as Green signed a bill expanding a 5% tax credit incentive for productions that hire up to 80% local talent.
