Is It Time For a Constitutional Convention? | KĀKOU: Hawaiʻi’s Town Hall

Описание: Hawaiʻi has held a Constitutional Convention twice since statehood, in 1968 and in 1978. Following the last convention, voters approved dozens of amendments, including the right to privacy, the establishment of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs and the state water commission and term limits for the governor. We are inviting panelists to discuss whether it is time for another one.
