We did it! Thank You to all who sent emails, made phone calls and testified in-person!
Success!!! Yay us!!!
In a meeting that lasted nearly six hours, approximately 40 people waited in line to testify one-by-one in separate rooms in Hilo and Kona set-up due to COVID.
Determined to have their voices heard, testifiers persevered as there is no option to testify online from home in Hawaii County, despite the recent closure of rural testimony locations.
Written testimony in support was overwhelming. According to the County Clerk's Office 650 written testimonies were submitted, almost all of which were in support of the Resolution.
