On Tuesday March 4th our COS resolution was filed in the House, House Concurrent Resolution (HCR) 34, by our introducer Representative Cory Chun. We also matched an all-time high with 12 sponsors and co-sponsors, which include Representatives David Alcos, Diamond Garcia, Sue Keohokapu-Lee Loy, Darius Kila, Sam Kong, Lauren Matsumoto, Elijah Pierick, Julie Reyes Oda, Garner Shimizu, Gene Ward, and Jackson Sayama.
On Friday March 7th our COS resolution was filed in the Senate, Senate Concurrent Resolution (SCR) 140, by our introducer Senator Donovan Dela Cruz. With the following sponsors and co-sponsors Senators Henry Aquino, Brenton Awa, Samantha DeCorte, Kurt Fevella, Glenn Wakai, and Brendon Elefente.
Filing of our COS resolution this year marks the 10th consecutive year that we've been filed, both chambers, in the Hawai'i State Legislature.
Next week our resolutions will be assigned committees and presented in the respective chamber's floor session for First Reading.
Once we find out what the committee assignments are, we'll begin our efforts to influence the committee chairs and members to schedule a hearing for our resolutions.
It is crucial that your representatives hear from their constituents. They need to know that the only solution as BIG as the problem is an Article V convention of the states. Your voice counts and it's time to use it!
