Let's see: Democrat governor (check!) Democrat state legislature (check!) highest tourist tax in the world (check!) high paying welfare state and federal (check!) DID I MENTION A DEMOCRAT PRESIDENT WHO WAS ALLEGEDLY BORN THERE? (check!) LEFTIST HEAVEN ON EARTH? (not checked!)
 
HONOLULU (AP) — Hawaii Gov. David Ige has declared a state of emergency to deal with the state's homelessness crisis just days after city and state officials cleared one of the nation's largest homeless encampments.

The move will help the state speed up the process of building a homeless shelter for families, and the state is considering four possible sites, Ige said at a news conference Friday.

"We are making sure that we have options for those who are homeless to move into an emergency shelter, and the biggest deficit in the system is shelter space for families," Ige said. "So the emergency proclamation would allow us to stand up shelters for families in an expeditious manner."

Hawaii saw a 23 percent increase in its unsheltered homeless population between 2014 and 2015, and a 46 percent increase in the number of unsheltered families, said Scott Morishige, state homelessness coordinator.

Hawaii has an estimated 7,620 homeless people, said the governor's spokeswoman Cindy McMillan, citing a 2015 statewide count.

California has about 114,000 homeless, New York has more than 80,000 and Texas about 28,500, according to the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness -

Specifically, the emergency proclamation allows the spending of over $1.3 million to fund homeless services and help set up permanent homes for families and the chronically homeless.

Last month, the Los Angeles City Council declared a state of emergency on homelessness and called for $100 million to address the crisis.
That's $1.3 million for the entire state of Hawai'i, and $100 million for one city in California.
