Subject: Opposing Bill 121, 122, 123 --- Please don't take away our ability to afford Oing
T
MHI
Hello,-`
I am a senior who counts on our vacation rental incofine
to
be able to afford to live in Hawaii. I could not afford to
live
here, without that extra income. I live on our property,
but our ohana allows us to afford the huge and growing
expenses of living in Hawaii. These proposed bills are
simply unfair. On top of that, we already pay 17.962%
in
taxes to our state and county. That is already excessive
and a huge source of revenue for HI. Staying in private
homes should be a choice for people coming to Hawaii and
it should be affordable for everyone. Please do not take
away our freedoms and ability to survive.
Sincerely, Karen Russell
