A Win for Hawai’i! – Court Rules that Army Stryker Brigade decision was illegal

A federal appeals court ruled that the Army violated the National Environmental Policy Act by not considering alternative sites for the proposed Stryker Brigade expansion. This should halt all Stryker related projects in Hawai’i until another environmental impact statement can be prepared. This is an important win for the people of Hawai’i and the ‘aina, but the Stryker Brigade threat is not over.
