Office of the Governor / Hawaiʻi YIMBY

Sign the petition sending support and thanks to Governor Green for his focus and dedication to addressing Hawai'i's affordable housing crisis.


What's New: On July 17, 2023, Governor Green signed an Emergency Proclamation on Housing (EP). According to the Governor's office press release, the EP "directs all state agencies to prioritize housing reviews, plans, approvals, and permit processing. It also means additional state resources will be directed to address the affordable housing crisis."

What This Means: We can approve and quickly build critical housing supply. With a significant increase in housing supply, housing prices drop, becoming affordable for more people.

What We Say: "We support the housing emergency proclamation!"

YES-- to more housing

YES-- to right NOW!

YES-- to staying in an affordable Hawai'i
