The U.S. Department of Agriculture has awarded Hawaii more than $660,000 for expediting its review of applications for the federal food stamp program.
The state Department of Human Services has come a long way from 2010, when only 29 percent of applications were processed within the 30 days required by federal rules. In fiscal 2014, the department raised that figure to 94 percent.
Having expedited a process sufficiently that it can happen within the required time ... I salute DHS for their incredible achievement.
