Renewable Jobs
"Communities are realizing now, more than ever, that our food must be grown and cultivated here in a sustainable manner if we are to relay on it's availability. Let's renew the focus on sustainable crop production because this would create a wide variety of new jobs including; planting, harvesting, irrigation, pest control, and product marketing. West Maui should be capitalizing on this emerging industry on a world-wide level."- Ramon Kitaichi Madden

Home Rule for West Maui
What's happening on West Maui is happening all across Hawaii. It is critical that we send to Honolulu, representatives that represent no factions or special interests. Our district representatives should only answer to their conscience and to the people of the district they represent.
We DO want Bills that ARE being debated openly and fairly.
We DO want Bills that will LOWER taxes.
We DO want Bills that will HELP our healthcare.
We DO want bills that will SAVE jobs.
We DO NOT want bills that will run the State of Hawaii deeper into the kind of debt that is not in the interest of the people of Hawaii.
We DO NOT want billion dollar tax increase plans forced on the people of Hawaii.
The State of Hawaii demands a balanced budget and now our representatives want to raise taxes instead of cutting back. Make no mistake, the budget shortfall is not because of lack of money.
The problems we face now are in fact a direct result of out of control spending and mismanagement. I have no doubt that we can fix the budget without raising taxes. Then the only thing we will have to pay more of, is attention.
