ALERT! - AHCC, SCHHA & CNHA TO ASK OHA TO FUND NATION-BUILDING

Please forward this to all Hawaiians and our supporters.
 

Highly reliable sources have informed us that the recently announced partnership comprised of the Association of Hawaiian Civic Clubs (AHCC,) the Sovereign Councils of the Hawaiian Home Lands Assembly (SCHHA) and the Council for Native Hawaiian Advancement (CNHA) will soon be requesting funding from the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) to pay for activities for their recently announced nation-building efforts.

Sources tell us the amount of funding that will be requested of OHA will be in the $3.5 to 5 million dollar range.

This request, if approved, would put OHA at odds with its purported recently adopted “neutral stance” with respect to the Native Hawaiian roll and nation-building.

It also is in direct conflict with the vast majority of Kanaka Maoli who have repeatedly rejected Kana`iolowalu or any nation-building/US federal recognition efforts.

We ask you to contact the Office of Hawaiian Affairs today to let them know you are opposed to OHA giving this group of pro “Fed-Wreckers” a single penny.

Demand that the Office of Hawaiian Affairs remain neutral
.

Tell OHA to reject any and all requests for funding from this partnership now or in the future - period
.
