RALLY

I flew in ffom Kaua'i like other Hawaiians to march and demonstrate at the state capitol in protest against House Bill 2340 of whieh Rep. Ed Case, is the author. The huge turnout at our peaceful demonstration was impressive and inspiring to say the least. If our legislators don't get the message by this display of solidarity, then defmitely the State of Hawai'i will be in for a rough time and possibly shut down. House Bill 2340 is the rallying eall to all Hawaiians. We will not tolerate this threat to loss of entitlements (ceded lands, Hawaiian Home Lands, Hawaiian institutions and sovereignty). Aloha 'āina.
