Lahaina Residents Petition to Delay Reopening Tourism After Deadly Wildfire

A deadly wildfire in Lahaina, Hawaii in August resulted in 98 deaths and destroyed much of the town.
Over 3,500 Lahaina residents signed a petition asking Governor Josh Green to delay reopening tourism in the area.
Some residents say they are not emotionally ready for visitors, while others rely on tourism jobs.
Governor Green expressed sympathy but emphasized the economic need to reopen tourism.
Maui saw a 70% drop in visitors after the wildfire, leading to rising unemployment.
