Hawaii attorney general Doug Chin decided to lead the charge and file a lawsuit against the Feds travel ban because he feels the ban will have a negative effect on tourism, travel, etc.,   to Hawaii.   It seems like this effect is grossly overstated for Hawaii.
But in the overall picture, does it make sense for Hawaii to file this lawsuit?  Other states would have done it in due time.  Hawaii, as a democratic state, is already on Trumps s--t list.  Currently, we are asking the Feds for billions of dollars to help finance rail construction to Ala Moana.  Why cause more friction with this lawsuit?  If the Feds deny financing for the rail and Hawaii is forced to foot the bill, we can thank Doug Chin for his lack of foresight.
