Big Island Organizations & Programs Losing Funding
I do also recommend the video Tom posted from the UH president - her background in labor law gives her some keen insights on both the legal and political landscape with which the university has to contend as well as plans for tackling various logistical issues arising from the haphazard cuts (like raising and providing support for grad students recently stranded when their promised federal stipends were cancelled).

Federal cuts to agriculture in Hawaii also making the national news, including impacts in Laupahoehoe.

Tariffs on food imports and cutting support for local farmers really going to be inflating those grocery bills. I guess let them eat cake (donuts)!
