Republican US Representative Charles Djou, who is seeking re-election next Tuesday, said yesterday he supports holding a nonbinding plebiscite in Hawai`i on the Akaka bill.
Some sort of advisory public vote in Hawai`i would be acceptable if the bill is not passed during an expected lame-duck congressional session after Tuesday's general election, and if it is considered in the future, he said.
Regardless of an advisory vote, Djou added, "I definitely think there should be some public hearings in Hawai`i" on the measure."
