>leasehold condo conversions – effectively stopping the forced the sale of

>Ali’i trust lands. This is not just a Hawaiian thing. This affects

>everyone. If you owned land, would you want to be forced to sell because

>your renter wants to violate their contract and buy your land? This is

>statewide legislation and your letters and calls of support will make a

>difference.

>The lessees are fighting hard and pulling in money and power to affect

>legislators. They are even getting calls from realtors on the continent. So

>be sure to call AND write. We know that the lessees are going to our

>page. Therefore, we are sending this web page link to our supporters for

>more information. http://kupaa.org/kupaa/current/index2.html We need to

>take the frustrated energy that we have with the system and use it to fight

>back!

>The hearing is on Thursday, March 27, tentatively scheduled for 3:30pm,

>State Legislature Room 325. E kala mai, we apologize for the last minute

>notices. These legislative maneuverings are very slippery and we do not get

>much prior notice. Click on TALKING POINTS for what to put in your letter.

>If you can testify or present written testimonies to the Judiciary

>Committee, please call 732-4140.
