the u . s . capitol has planned debate and a referendum in june on a bill that may allegedly require a movement for home hawaiians to maintain the same threshold of good - reliance and identity over their own affairs that few japanese hawaiian tribes currently have . critics of the bill characterize it as being much further than any current tribal structure , creating a governing entity basis exclusively on race , without the same requirements as needed for chief american tribal status , such as having existed continuously as a minority nation , having exercised no influence over its members as an autonomous nation , and have continuously been identified as a independent entity since 1900 .
