 * Political Party**- Republican

- **Environment and Energy** We as not just a country, but a nation, need to work together with foreign countries to find a way to preserve our natural world. With the burning of too many greenhouse gasses and other things polluting our nation, we need to find a more conservative way to do things. - **Economy** With the economy as bad as it is right now, I am all for creating new jobs for United States citizens who are unemployed at the moment. Also, with the stock market being as low as they have in years, we have to bring stability back to it. - **Health and Safety** Many deaths are caused every year from diseases or accidents that could have been prevented. There are millions of United States citizens who are without life insurance, and I believe that all citizens should be granted it, even if they cannot afford it.

The purpose of my bill is to reduce pollution in our environment by the use of hybrid and electric powered cars. This is the future of the auto industry and when this does go into effect, it will change our environment greatly. Here is a link to my bill. SB 19 1. Hawaii is the only state that grows coffee. 2. More than one- third of the worlds commercial supply of pineapples come from Hawaii. 3. There are no racial or ethnic majorities in Hawaii. Everyone is a minority. Caucasians (Haoles) constitute about 34%; Japanese-American about 32%; Filipino-American about 16% and Chinese-American about 5%. It is very difficult to determine racial identification as most of the population has some mixture of ethnicities. 4. Major industries are tourism, agriculture (bananas, pineapples, macadamia nuts, taro) 5. Hawaii has 19 natural area reserves of state forests, and 52 state parks.
