[Nfb-hi] HEARING MONDAY - We Must Stop HB 646!

[Justin Salisbury]

Fellow Federationists:

The time has come! The hearing is set for Monday, March 20, at 1:15 pm in Conference Room 225.

I have attached a template public hearing testimony. Every testimony counts. We need to be LOUDER than the people who want this bill.

If you want to submit testimony, even if you cannot be at the public hearing, all you have to do is put in your name, address, chapter, and position (if any). Anything you do to go above and beyond that is great, but don't stress over it.

The system sent me a message saying that the testimony upload site is not working, so we need to send testimonies all directly to the committee at:
tretestimony at capitol.hawaii.gov<mailto:tretestimony at capitol.hawaii.gov>

Testimonies are due at 1:15 pm Friday, March 17, but late testimonies are better than nothing.

Please let me know if you have any trouble with this. I can be reached via email or by calling 860-989-7865.

I am making plans to attend the hearing in person to testify. Please join me at the meeting, whether or not you want to speak. Every person on our side makes a difference!

Aloha,

Justin
