The Senate has voted to move ahead on health care legislation aimed at dismantling the Obama health law. The vote was 51-50 on Tuesday, a victory for Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and President Donald Trump. Last week, McConnell was forced to postpone the vote, lacking the support of conservatives and moderates. Vice President Mike Pence cast the tie-breaking vote. In a dramatic turn, Sen. John McCain returned from Arizona where he is battling brain cancer to cast a crucial vote on proceeding on health care. The vote sets up days of debate and votes on repealing and replacing Barack Obama’s health care law. Whatever the Senate approves still requires a vote in the House.

A team of predator control specialists with DLNR's Division of Forestry and Wildlife is flown to the Hono O Na Pali Natural Area Reserve via helicopter on a weekly basis to check the traps and set new ones. The area is a prime breeding and nesting place for the critically endangered Hawaiian Petrel, or Ua'u, and Newell's Shearwater, or A'o. The Hono O Na Pali predator control effort started in 2014. Since then, the DLNR says 55 feral cats have been captured in live cage traps and euthanized. These are the birds' no. 1 predator. Automatic traps placed at the base of trees have also killed 1,392 rats.
