Kanaka Maoli

Dr. Danny DeGracia has a great article in Civil Beat. Excerpts:

Want to change it?  Here is how:

1. Don’t wait till Opening Day on January 16, 2019 to get involved.

2. Find out who the chairs of standing committees are.

3. Sign up for hearing notifications on the Capitol website.

4. Show up in person to testify for committees and always request amendments.

5. Request waivers.

6. Write floor speeches for your legislator.

7. Be polite, be reasonable, and be transactional. Similarly for the City Council.
