Akaka Bill re-introduced
to Congress
1/19/07: Yesterday, Senator Akaka introduced the Native Hawaiian Reorganization
Act of 2007. The bill establishes a process to extend the federal policy of self-governance
and self-determination to Hawaii's indigenous people. The bill itself does not
extend federal recognition - it authorizes the process for federal recognition.
The bill is identical to legislative language
negotiated between Senator Inouye and Senator Akaka and officials from the Department
of Justice, Office of Management and Budget, and the White House. The language
satisfactorily addresses concerns expressed in July 2005 by the Bush Administration
regarding the liability of the United States in land claims, the impact of the
bill on military readiness, gaming, and civil and criminal jurisdiction in Hawaii.
For
a complete text of Senator Akaka's remarks and a
copy of the bill, please go to our website:

Want to encourage you to come join us in your Mamo uniform. If the family

Posted Nov. 16, 2006: One of our long time HCCH members
has left us. Aunty Agnes was one of the original members of our choral
group when Haunani A. resuscitated the HCCH choral group and Manu started
directing us in the late '80's.
Her family would like us to sing on Saturday and if we
can get enough of you to come, we will. Lucia has contacted the choral
members, but has not heard back from many of them. Her computer
is down and she will be in meetings the next few days. So, I volunteered
to take your emails htunk001@hawaii.rr.com,
calls (732-2468) if you are able to join us on Sat. at 10:30 a.m. at
Nu'uanu Baptist Church, 2010 Nu'uanu Avenue. All HCCH members are
encouraged to join us. Wear Mamo or, if you don't have a Mamo, aloha
attire. Please respond ASAP as we need to let her family know whether
or not we can sing.
