Malama Cares, Elect Malama Solomon Lieutenant Governor Democratic Party

rExperience Counts Serving for 2 years as the first Office of Hawaiian Affairs Trustee, representing the Island of Hawai'i & 16 years in the Hawaii State Senate has taught me that leadership is more than making speeches & gaining recognition but following through with persistence & hard work.

1 1 Aloha Kakou, In our Hawai'i, these are diffieult eeonomie times Ll for working families and persons on fixed ineomes.

IIt's a struggle to meet daily expenses or even find an affordable home to rent or to own. Traffie grid-loek and the over-erowding of sehools, negatively impaet our quality of life. Health eare and higher education remain out of reach for many. I support the right of Native Hawaiians to reach their own settlements of unresolved issues with the County, State and Federal Governments. With your vote in the General Election, I pledge to work towards the resolution of our many problems, protect our fragile Island environment, preserve our prime agricultural lands and improve our quality of Life. I care about you, your family and our eommunities. I ean get the job done. M
