Letter: Biden to blame for lost Hawaii tourism dollars
CRAIG T. KOJIMA / CKOJIMA@STARADVERTISER.COM
Hawaii visitors walk along Kalakaua Avenue on April 27.
Biden’s runaway spending, inflation and immigration policies have created an economy which has reduced disposable income for mainland vacationers looking to visit Hawaii.
Groceries cost 30% more since Biden came into office, mainline winter fuel heating expenses have depleted visitors’ cash reserves, higher airfares due to increased cost of jet fuel and the burden of illegal immigration on federal, state and municipal governments is causing increasing taxes on businesses and residents. It is Biden’s shrinking economy and open-border policies causing our visitor decline.
