#MAUNAKEA: Today’s events at Mauna Kea have ended peacefully. My number one priority continues to be the safety of all. To that end, a strong line of communication and respect between law enforcement and the protest leaders has been established. The state is committed to continuing that dialogue and respect.
We are all stewards of this land and I continue to be committed to engaging with people holding all perspectives on this issue and to making meaningful changes that further contribute to the co-existence of culture and science on Mauna Kea. #TMT
