What's next?

Dear fellow Republicans,     November 14, 2013

Yesterday the Governor signed SB1 into law and the Democrat-controlled legislature wrapped up the special session, leaving many of our members are wondering, "What's next?"

What Hawaii witnessed at the Capitol over the past two weeks - a broken process that ignores the voices of our local residents - was a direct result of a Democrat super majority. Like this issue, there will be other issues in the future that the legislature will decide regardless of the will of the people. We deserve better from our government.

Regardless of where you stood on this issue, we all agree on one thing: we need to restore balance to our government. We need to bring the power back to the people. We need to make our voices heard.

That's why the Hawaii Republican Party is doubling down on establishing a permanent grassroots infrastructure, to respond to legislative issues with effective action and to support our Republican candidates across the state so we can win. The HRP will be hosting a series of training and informational meetings over the next several weeks for activists like yourself who are looking to make a difference here in Hawaii.

It starts now. Next Tuesday and Thursday, join us at the HRP headquarters from 10am to 4pm for an open house drop-in. We will have step-by-step information on how to register to vote, become a member of the Republican Party and get to work to fix our government. Find out how to organize your precinct and connect with other concerned citizens in your neighborhood.

I'm challenging each of you to recruit one person -- a friend, a family member, a co-worker -- to join our efforts and attend our open house drop-in. Forward this email to a friend so that they can get updates on valuable training over the next few months.

I'm optimistic that with your support and your action, we can turn things around for our state, so that never again can the legislature push through the agenda of the political elite. We can hold our legislators accountable next November, but it starts now.

Follow us on Twitter at @gophawaii, and let us know how we're doing.

Thank you for all that you do for our communities, our state and our great nation.

Mahalo,

Kayla Berube
