The Freedom Hour 5-9-26

from The Rick Hamada Program

Episode 83 (9 May 2026): Today’s Freedom Hour – Session’s Over: Now the People’s Audit. The 2026 Hawaiʻi Legislative Session is over — but what did the people actually get? This episode breaks down the scale, cost, and priorities of the legislative process, from thousands of bills and hearings to the small number of measures that survived. We explore the deeper policy patterns shaping Hawaiʻi’s future, the growing role of centralized systems and governance, and what was notably absent. Most importantly, we ask: what are the people of Hawaiʻi going to do about it?
