Appeals Court Blocks Hawaii's Climate Change Tourist Tax On Cruise Ships
Authored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times,
A federal appeals court on New Year's Eve blocked Hawaii from enforcing a new tax on cruise ship passengers, one day before it was set to go into effect.
Two judges of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit imposed an injunction on the law, reversing a lower court ruling.
