The people have spoken, and there is overwhelming support for this law. Mainland money is having negative effects on Hawaii's elections and economy, and the Fair Elections Act would empower small businesses and communities because more people will be more engaged in the political process. The people have spoken on this bill. For ten years, tens of thousands of citizens have weighed in on this law. A 2005 AARP survey also concluded that 86% of Hawaii's residents believe there should be changes in the way we finance our campaigns. People understand the corrosive impacts of money on the lawmaking process: excessive health care costs are forcing small businesses to close; our entire energy infrastructure is based on technology that has been outdated for 60 years; short term profits are trumping long term sustainable solutions to our biggest problems. I'm counting on you to listen to the people and do what is right by protecting the Fair Elections Act Sincerely, Yuko Nakashima 1239 Railroad Ave. Hilo, HI 96720 1
