State government must be innovative and work cooperatively with the private sector to ensure everyone in our community has:
- Equal opportunities in education, jobs, healthcare and affordable housing
- Equal protection under the law in our criminal justice system
- Environmental justice in the use and development of our natural resources
- Improved capacity for self-reliance for food and energy
- Equal access to a safety net for food assistance and temporary housing when times get tough
- Safe streets with improved accessibility and mobility for multiple modes of transport, including commercial vehicles, cars, bicycles, wheelchairs, and pedestrians
- Sustainable public hospital facilities in North Kohala, Hamakua, Kona, Hilo and Kau that work hand-in-hand with private hospitals like North Hawaii Community Hospital to provide the healthcare services needed in our community
