ALERT! - SB 2816 STILL ALIVE - HELP STOP THE MAUNA KEA CRIMINAL TRESPASS BILL TOMORROW MORNING

Please forward this to all Hawaiians and our supporters.

We are aware that there are rumors circulating online that SB2816 is now dead.

That is NOT the case.

We spoke with Hawai`i state senator Ron Kouchiʻs office by phone and they assured us the vote will go forward tomorrow morning.

Therefore, we ask everyone to be at the state capitol tomorrow morning, Tuesday May 3rd at 9 AM to express your opposition in person to SB 2816, the Mauna Kea Criminal Trespass bill.

Here is why itʻs so important for everyone to show up en masse to defeat this bill.

If SB 2816 passes, it would become a law to prosecute Mauna Kea protectors as well as all Aloha `Aina warriors everywhere who seek to protect Hawai`iʻs land, natural resources and wahi pana (sacred places.)

If the thirty meter telescope is ever to be built atop Mauna Kea, those running the illegal US occupation in Hawai`i need a law like this to use against all who show up to challenge the fake stateʻs mechanisms and even the fake stateʻs legitimacy itself.

The law from SB 2816 could even be applied to criminalize and arrest those who oppose Na`i Aupuni and the forced imposition of US federal recognition in Hawai`i.

We hope you understand the gravity and seriousness of SB 2816 should it be allowed to become law.

If you are unable to attend tomorrow morning, please let all senators and David Ige know how you feel about this attempt to secretly undermine Mauna Keaʻs protectors and Aloha `Aina warriors everywhere.

You can email Hawai`iʻs state senators here - http://www.capitol.hawaii.gov/members/legislators.aspx?chamber=S

You may contact David Ige here - http://governor.hawaii.gov/contact-us/comments-on-legislation/

We look forward to seeing you tomorrow morning.

Mahalo.
