Both cited sources are reachable and directly document the promised outcome for this promise. The promise verb is "propose," and Governor Green did exactly that in his first State of the State address (2023-01-23). Hawaii Public Radio's full text of the address confirms the key quote verbatim: "That is why I am now proposing over 1 billion dollars of new investment in housing," followed by the substance about the Hawaii Public Housing Authority, state rental subsidies to low-income families, and financing through the Hawaii Housing Finance and Development Corporation — matching the rating's quoted sentence. Honolulu Civil Beat independently corroborates: Green "proposed... an additional $1 billion for housing," itemized as $400 million to the state's rental housing trust fund for developing rental units and $500 million to the dwelling unit revolving fund for infrastructure improvements — matching the rating's quoted figures. Because the promise is scoped to making the proposal (not enactment), and Green authored and delivered exactly that proposal, FULL is the correct outcome. This is not a CHAMPIONED rating, so no leadership-elevation check applies. Neither source overstates the evidence, and no quote is fabricated. Rating upheld.
