HALVORSEN, SUSAN KEHAULANI DEMOCRAT

Q1. 1 will work to ensure that Hawai'i Government, laws and public policies are impartial and that public and private

organizations are given opportunities to succeed. Q2. I do not supportthe current State/Federal Government involvement in federal recognition. Current nation-building efforts do not inform Native Hawaiians of the conseguences of Federal Recognition such as the limited judiciary powers, inadeguate sentencing authority and complicated jurisdiction issues.
