Aloha, Friends! (Spread the word)

The Conference decision making for the Human-Traffficking related bills HB240 and HB141 was deferred until next week pending the House's redrafting of the bills and further analysis of the Senate amendments.

So, for those of you who couldn't make it on such short notice today, you have another chance. Please come and support! We will have signs for you to hold (no testimony needed).

CONFERENCE DECISION NOTICE: The bills related to Human Trafficking HB141 (labor-trafficking) and HB240 (promoting prostitution) have been re-scheduled as follows:

MONDAY, 4/25/11, at 3pm for HB141 (Labor-Trafficking)
TUESDAY, 4/26/11, at 2:30pm for HB240 (Promoting Prostitution)

Both will be held in Conference Room 325 at the State Capitol. Please come to one or both! This is history in the making for Hawaii! Don't be late, we started at the top of the list and we will again next week as well.

Please also help spread the word to get supporters in the room on these days. If you are on Facebook, share this event: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=150142551717558
