OFFICE OF HAWAIIAN AFFAIRS CONTINUES RECKLESS SPENDING

Hawaiian Beneficiary Dollars Spent To Push Occupiers Agenda


Holland & Knight has been hired by the Office of Hawaiian Affairs to lobby for the Akaka bill, which would impose federal recognition.


Acting lobbyists are former Sen. Ben Nighthorse Campbell (R-Colo.) and David Devendorf, a former staffer to Campbell.


Meanwhile another Capitol Hill lobbying firm, Patton Boggs, said their 2005 growth was partly attributable to a contract with the Office of Hawaiian Affairs.


OHA paid Patton Boggs $400,000 over six months, making it the firm's fifth largest client, said spokesman Brian Hale.
