The 2020 legislative session is in progress and we expect to see bills that either support our transition to renewable energy and sustainable transportation or those that present barriers. We can all contribute but voicing our support or opposition to bills, depending on their impact.
How do we do this? By writing or calling our local representatives directly or by submitting testimony and supporting bills. As we hear about bills that require our testimony, we will send out alerts via our posts, email, and/or social media.
We hope that you’ll take the time to express your opinions. Together, we can influence the discussions and decisions.
Finding Your Representatives and Senators
If you would like to write, call, or fax your legislators, you can find their information at the Hawaii State Legislature website. Here are short-cuts to the lists:
How to Submit Testimony
To submit testimony to the Hawaii Legislature, you’ll need have an account (you’ll need to log in before you can submit testimony). To create an account, go to the Hawaii State Legislature Registration Page and click the Register link in the upper right corner. This process takes a few minutes.
For step-by-step instructions on submitting testimony, check out this Hope Services Hawaii tutorial.
Please support this bill!!! This is GOOD for the islands.
