Aloha! GREAT NEWS!
MAHALO to all who Showed up!!! This may not have happened without you!
Today, the Hawaii Island Council voted 5/4 to APPROVE the APPEAL of Federal Judge Barry Kurren's ruling that invalided the Hawaii County GMO ban! This ruling could also invalidate our 2008 ban on GMO taro and Kona Coffee as well.
Pray our GMO Ban WILL be upheld on appeal! Stay tuned!
Five YES Votes

In essence you support going against the will of the majority of the voters and use the council members to veto "the people". Beware of the dangerous precedent your setting. What law will be next?
