My Five Point Pledge to the Native Hawaiian Community
Matt Matsunaga, Candidate for Congressional District Seat 2 issued the following 5-point commitment at the August 9, 2006 Meet the Candidate Coffee Hour:
1. I pledge to work pro-actively with the Native Hawaiian Community to hold an ‘Aha (conference) to bring together all organizations who currently receive federal entitlements that enable them to provide programs and services to the Native Hawaiian Community. My goal would be to ensure that those organizations continue to receive funding for their important programs.
2. My door will always be open to you in D.C. and in Honolulu. I want to hear your concerns and your needs so that we can work together to ensure that critical programs that benefit the Native Hawaiian community continue to receive funding.
3. I pledge to work with Native Hawaiian organizations to determine how federal grants can be a catalyst for social enterprise so that if feasible, programs can become self-sustainable.
4. I pledge to recruit a team of advisors from various sectors of the community including the Native Hawaiian community to give me feedback and be my eyes and ears so that I can seek ways that the federal government can help local organizations that serve the needs of our community.
5. I pledge to listen to the Native Hawaiian community and work with them to ensure that some type of federal legislation is passed to halt the challenges to Native Hawaiian entitlement programs and challenges to organizations such as the Office of Hawaiian Affairs and Kamehameha Schools.
