WHY NO AKAKA BILL HEARINGS IN HAWAI`I?
Senator Akaka had come to Maui to hold a “public hearing” for Maui vets (as they deservedly should get).
Yet, for the past nine years Mr. Akaka did not hold one public hearing regarding the Akaka Bill on any of the Islands here in Hawai`i.
Sir, you have just rubbed Hawaiian Salt into this gaping wound you have inflicted on many Hawaiians.
Hawaiians and residents of these islands demand holding public hearings on all islands!
