imagine if we won't comply with pending legislation
https://www.khon2.com/coronavirus/bill-proposes-prohibiting-future-lieutenant-governor-from-having-second-job/

A bill moving through the state house of representatives states if a governor cannot perform their duties, the lieutenant governor would need to dedicate all their attention, time, and energy in serving the people of Hawaii.

Currently Lt. Gov. Josh Green works two 48-hour shifts a month as an emergency room doctor on the Big Island.

“It’s a privilege to be a doctor for my community,” said Lt. Gov. Josh Green. “It really makes me a better lieutenant governor being a physician, frankly. So I’m not into political games. I don’t like them. But anyone who’s not totally focused on stopping COVID-19 isn’t doing their job. So let’s focus on that. I’m going to be a doctor no matter what, but I am honored to be a physician and lieutenant governor.”

Bad bill, hope it doesn't come down to making him choose compliance or not.

I don't have a problem with Governors and Mayors having a second job as long as there is no conflict of interest and they are always available if there is an emergency.

Whats needed more is to pass a recall law so people have the ability to kick people out of office if they're not doing their job.

We should. But the swamp here is deep. Prehistoric deep.
Green is such a 2 faced politician. (Isn't that redundant?)

Won't matter, they will find other ways to make money. Like "foundations" and if they're high enough, book/netflix deals.

Hawaii: No recall. No term limits. No referendum. No ballot initiative.

Only state in the entire United States to have not a single one of the above. Many states have all four.

Almost could lead one to believe that those in power (Democrats) don't give a shit about what "the people" want. Almost.

By design, I am certain.  No challenge to the absolute democrat rule is allowed.
