UPDATE! Hawaii’s Public Called to Action Over Legislation That Will Steal Public Lands

By Katherine LindellApril 17, 2019April 18, 2019Lying to Hawaii's Public, Privatizing Public Assets, Stealing Public Lands and Assets

UPDATE, we now have over 450 signatures on the Petition OPPOSING S.B. 1257 and H.B. 1032. We will be delivering the Petition today to the Conferees on S.B. 1257 today but you can still sign by CLICKING HERE. We will use it again if and when conference is held on H.B. 1032.

FURTHER UPDATE: House Conferees on S.B. 1257 have been assigned, so the full Committee has now been assembled and will likely convene within days.

PLEASE CALL AND EMAIL THE LIST BELOW and tell them you OPPOSE BOTH S.B. 1257 and H.B. 1032. These Bills pave the way for the DLNR to SELL OUR PUBLIC LANDS to private corporations by leasing of all fast and submerged lands within our PUBLIC HARBORS "in their entirety." S.B. 1257 is the first step in "clearing out" the Harbors for privatization and commercialization, by raising boating fees and live-aboard fees far beyond what any average person in Hawaii can afford.

Below is the full updated list. Note: Senator Keith-Agaran was added, so please make sure to call him also. Mahalo for your support!

House Conferees:

Rep. Ryan Yamane: 808-586-6150

Rep. Chris Todd: 808-586-8480

Rep. Cynthia Thielen: 808-586-6480

Senate Conferees (updated):

Senator Keith-Agaran: 808-856-7344

Hey that parking lot has been that way for ever just leave it alone for the local community

UPDATE! Hawaii’s Public Called to Action Over Legislation That Will Steal Public Lands

UPDATE! Who to Contact and How to Contact Them

When we questioned DLNR personnel about the ongoing fraud, we were met with a wall of silence

DoBOR's Insurance rule "ridiculous", insurers say

Insurance rule weaponized by the DLNR's Ed Underwood as part of larger plan to collapse publicly-owned harbor system

Business as usual as Hawaii's DLNR attempts to discourage public testimony with last-minute "extension" trick

The DLNR's sexual predator, Ed Underwood, set to testify in favor of cancelling the ocean recreation community at the AWSBH

This may be just another business-as-usual, as Hawaii's DLNR continues to pursue it's strategy of adversarial relationship with the public

A contrivance of the DLNR's resident sexual deviate, Ed Underwood, this hearing is nothing more than a back door, gray-area attempt to end-run the legislature's already having tabled this item

The core of Hawaii's culture is dangerously at risk . . . we are not the mainland

The politics -- union and otherwise -- behind the likes of a sustained Underwood tenure in State of Hawaii offices are every reason why we had the devastating Lahaina disaster response

What will happen to Maui has already been pre-determined: planned opportunism guaranteed by ongoing and deadly infrastruture incompetence and corruption

Within 24 hours, thousands of pounds of supplies collected and assembled for delivery to victims on Maui

An appeal to all grassroots Hawaii for help . . . we are ohana; government disaster response may take a while

Sign the petition: "Sexual Harassment/Assault is NOT OKAY . . . Remove Ed Underwood from his position NOW!"

Is Hawaii's Civil Service system so broken that incompetents, bullies and sexual preditors can't be fired? Why isn't HGEA stepping in to protect its members and residents from the likes of Underwood?

A clear pattern is emerging

Hawaii's democracy delusion

Hawaii's legislature is out of control

WAL's passage of HB1089 is an in-your-face message straight from the legislature right to the people of Hawaii . . . Hawaii's constitution DOES NOT MATTER

When your legislators tell you they want to privatize public assets, know this is a blatant admission of incompetence

Current government operatives are no more qualified to manage public lands than they are to manage America's space program

Hawaii's current liveaboard boat communities, especially on floating pier designs, are a prototype for what we could be doing to adapt to the ever-increasing amount of real estate that will become submerged lands in the not-too-distant future

Top environmental scientists now confirm that sea levels are rising at a much

In this upcoming election, we are not voting for the most qualified candidate but rather we are voting for the least bad choice

The consequences of voting for the "least bad" choice among candidates is a future that doesn't need or want you or your family in Hawaii

Politicians like Josh Green should never be a choice on the ballot

It's time to BREAK THE CYCLE of incompetent, corrupt leadership in Hawaii by saying NO to the career politicians who have been bleeding our community to death

Aloha United Way, One Oahu, and Legal and Family Services: "There will be NO available safety net for State principle habitation permitted families who are forced from their homes in Hawaii's harbors"

We are supporting this measure in good faith, hoping that it is used to enhance our public harbors for the boating public in Hawaii

The Omicron variant has made a mockery of Hawaii's vaccine mandate

Char-Kemble-Green-Ige pandemic response now almost criminally negligent

Meanwhile, Rep. "Wrong-Way"

Sen. Moriwaki (Waikiki District) email intended for DLNR's Ed Underwood lands in Hawaii Ocean News editor's inbox by mistake

This is what we know now

Hawaii's Supreme Court has found our State legislature guilty of repeated violations of the State's Constitution . . . violations that went on for more than a decade

Past laws, illegal, now need to be culled and repealed
