Native Hawaiian leaders plan to start forming their own new but unrecognized government following the failure of federal legislation to do so.
Office of Hawaiian Affairs trustee Haunani Apoliona on Tuesday called for the state-funded agency to sign people up to enroll as participants in the formation of a future Hawaiian government.
A previous effort, called Kau Inoa, gathered 108,000 signatures of people showing interest in a Hawaiian governing entity, but this new process will go a step further by creating the structure of the Hawaiian government.
Eventually, Congress would be asked to recognize the Hawaiian government, granting it a degree of sovereignty to create its own laws and manage its resources.
Native Hawaiians are the last remaining indigenous people in the United States that haven’t been allowed to establish their own government, a right already extended to Alaska Natives and Native American tribes.
Federal recognition for Native Hawaiians, known as the Akaka Bill, hasn’t received a vote in the Senate this year, and it likely will be shelved after newly elected Republicans take office next month.
I wonder if the OHA people would let a British Hawai’i raised lad become part of their Nation? What the bloody hell about the Hawaiian Kingdom? Don’t they have a memory? Can’t they not help but know She still exists in the international setting? I say just get on with it and declare the Constitution of Liliuo’kalani the one to follow…..
