Regarding the May 7th Advertiser “Isle delegation reintroduces version of the Akaka bill approved in 2007” article, again politicians far away and seemingly further out-of-touch with their constituents are making decisions for thousands that have yet to be heard on this specific issue.Not since 2000 have hearings been held on any of the Hawaiian Islands. Certainly the 2007 Akaka Bill which easily passed through many congressional committees then was not brought to the Hawaiian communities.You’d think hearings would be held on such an important bill that affects our entire community.I guess we can expect the same from Washington DC and Washington Place as we have from Wall Street. More corruption with no remedy!Foster AmpongKahului, Maui
