Bill > HR85

This Resolution declares that excessive military buildup, or overmilitarization, poses a danger to Hawaii and the rest of the world, citing the Russian invasion of Ukraine as a major humanitarian crisis and a violation of international law. It urges the United States to prioritize humanitarian aid for Ukraine and to strengthen international agreements aimed at preventing the spread of nuclear weapons, known as nuclear nonproliferation. The Resolution also highlights domestic concerns related to overmilitarization, such as the contamination of Honolulu's water supply by a Navy fuel storage facility and the military's impact on Hawaii's natural resources and Native Hawaiian rights.
