9TH CIRCUIT COURT HEARS NA`I AUPUNI LAWSUIT IN HONOLULU

Grassroot Institute Warns Closer To Native Hawaiian Tribe Than Ever Before

The challenge to the state's Native Hawaiian race-based election scheme moved forward today as the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit held a hearing in Honolulu to consider the case of Akina v. Hawaii.

The lawsuit, which was brought by four Native Hawaiians and two non-Hawaiian locals through the assistance of Judicial Watch, raises Constitutional issues regarding the use of race to qualify voters for elections and plebiscites related to the creation and approval of a Native Hawaiian tribal government. In addition, the Native Hawaiian plaintiffs have raised free speech questions related to the Roll's requirement that voters affirm the "unrelinquished sovereignty of the Native Hawaiian people."

"What many people do not realize is that we are closer today to the creation of a state-sponsored Native Hawaiian government than we were on the day that we instituted this suit," stated Keli'i Akina, Ph.D., President of the Grassroot Institute of Hawaii and a plaintiff in the lawsuit. "That is why this issue is very much alive despite the dissolution of Na'i Aupuni. Neither the state nor the Office of Hawaiian Affairs--which are also defendants in this case--have indicated any desire to abandon the nation-building process. Only a permanent injunction preventing a race-based election would put a true end to the matter."

Dr. Akina continued: "The majority of Native Hawaiians, along with general population of the state, do not support the use of public resources to form a race-based separatist nation. Our lawsuit is critical for preserving the Aloha Spirit in Hawaii."

"Finally, the Constitution and case law are clear in rejecting the race-based election and voter roll that are at the heart of the state's nation-building process. For this reason, we are confident that we will ultimately prevail," Dr. Akina concluded.

`AHA ALOHA `AINA DOES WHAT OHA REFUSED TO DO

Dear Secretary of State John Kerry,

On May 5, 2014, the CEO of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs sent a letter to Secretary of State, John Kerry inquiring about the legality of the United States' presence in Hawai`i.

To our knowledge that letter has never been adequately addressed.

On June 12, 2016 we will be holding an `Aha (official gathering) in Washington, DC pertaining to our governance, convened by `Aha Aloha `Aina. We hope to take the time to meet with you and your staff. We are available to meet from June 13-17, 2016, preferably on June 17, the commemoration of the day our Queen Lili`uokalani delivered her letter of protest to the illegal overthrow of our government and the subsequent attempts to annex Hawaii.

We appreciate your time and attention to this matter.

Sincerely,

Dr Kalamaoka`aina Niheu

BACKGROUND

This visit is a part of `Aha Aloha `Aina, a coalition of more than 40 Kanaka Maoli organizations, businesses, and Hawaiian leaders in our community dedicated to holding public meetings to determine the path forward for the healthy governance for our people utilizing our traditional framework called the Kino Kalaimoku. Like as seen with Hokule`a in her ongoing voyage, we hope to share the wisdom of our ancestors for the betterment of all mankind.

`Aha Aloha `Aina is a 100% community supported grassroots organization that utilizes zero tax payer funds. Due to the support of the community, we have been able to hold 21 free and open to the public `Aha (gatherings) throughout the islands. and several on the continental United States, among our Hawaiian diaspora community. Over the last 7 months approximately 2200 participants have been documented with 5 more planned in the next two months, one of which will be in Washington DC.

LEGAL CHALLENGE TO STOP PHONY NAI` AUPUNI CONSTITUTION RATIFICATION MOVES FORWARD
Law360.Com

Six individuals challenging a process to potentially establish a Native Hawaiian government told the Ninth Circuit on Tuesday that their suit is still viable, despite claims by the state of Hawaii and other defendants that the dissolution of the foundation behind the movement made the appeal moot. 

The group sparred with the state of Hawai`i, its Office of Hawaiian Affairs and the Na‘i Aupuni Foundation, who argued Tuesday in separate briefs that the challengers can no longer seek to block the ratification of a proposed constitution for a Native Hawaiian government because the foundation, which had once planned to conduct a vote on ratification, was dissolved in April after saying it wouldn’t hold the vote. The appeals court had ordered briefing from the parties on the question.

The challengers, who includes Native Hawaiians, Native Hawaiian descendants and state residents, said the issue hasn’t been resolved, arguing it’s not clear that Na`i Aupuni or the other defendants wouldn’t try again to conduct a ratification vote based on an allegedly race-based voter roll at some point.

“If the appellees truly were willing to forgo holding a ratification vote using the roll, the way to properly resolve the claims in this matter would be by agreeing to the issuance of a permanent injunction to that effect,” they said.

Na`i Aupuni originally planned to hold a vote-by-mail election of delegates to a convention known as an ‘aha to discuss a path to Native Hawaiian self-determination and potentially draft a constitution, but it terminated the election in December, saying the suit initiated by the six individuals — which primarily alleges the election process excludes non-natives in violation of the U.S. Constitution — could drag on for years.

Instead, the group offered seats at the convention to all 196 candidates, approximately 150 of which ultimately planned to attend the ‘aha, which began on Feb. 1 and concluded Feb. 26 with the approval of the proposed constitution.

U.S. District Judge J. Michael Seabright decided in October not to block the then-upcoming election, and Kelli Akina and the other plaintiffs appealed to the Ninth Circuit, arguing that the election was a public function because Na‘i Aupuni was working with the state of Hawai`i, including using a race-based list of Native Hawaiian voters created by state agencies.

The challengers said in a Feb. 19 filing that their suit wasn’t rendered moot when the election was canceled, arguing that the anticipated vote to ratify “governing documents” emerging from the event would unconstitutionally rely on the same race-based voter roll....
