Both of these bills, SB 1109 and HB 1545, are already dead this session. Why is SA reporting on this issue like it might make a difference if you know about them now? This would have been relevant last week - maybe. Is our daily paper really so poorly managed to not even have staff writers who understand the legislative calendar? It's their job to know so they can properly inform the public at appropriate times. Good to cover, but irrelevant and misleading coverage. Maybe do a story on how someone like Roz Baker has so much power to do so much harm to the people and that state of Hawaii for so long now. Where is the party to challenge her with the actual platform of the party she pretends to belong to while being hostile to any semblance of the party's platform? Do something relevant SA, cover that.
