MauiTime 2016 Year In Review

December 28, 2016 by Anthony Pignataro Leave a Comment

Even without the election of Republican Donald Trump to be President of the United States, this was a monstrous year. We’ve had to deal with job losses, outrageous giveaways to big business and just a general slide away from democratic protections and open government assurances. We like to think of Hawaii (and Maui especially) as […]

Why didn’t Rep. Tulsi Gabbard join 169 of her colleagues in denouncing Trump appointee Stephen Bannon?

November 18, 2016 by Anthony Pignataro 41 Comments

Though Rep. Tulsi Gabbard is a rising star within the Democratic Party, ultimately endorsed Hillary Clinton for president (after first endorsing Bernie Sanders, of course) and easily won reelection this year, she’s been ominously quiet on the issue of President-elect Donald Trump’s appalling appointees and nominations. Most notably, her signature did NOT appear with 169 […]

Hawaii Congressional Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, others honor the late Rep. Mark Takai

September 19, 2016 by Anthony Pignataro 3 Comments

It goes without saying that the death of 49-year-old U.S. Congressional Representative Mark Takai, D–Hawaii, on July 20 due to pancreatic cancer was very sad. Takai was a solid legislator and a great person. On the morning of Sept. 15, the U.S. House of Representatives held a Special Order of speeches for Takai (many members, […]

Maui and Hawaii officials wish Rep. Mark Takai the best

May 20, 2016 by Anthony Pignataro Leave a Comment

Yesterday brought some very sad news: U.S. Rep. Mark Takai, D–Honolulu, announced that health problems would prevent him from running for reelection. Takai won his first term in 2014, but announced last year that he had pancreatic cancer. “In life, we often make plans for ourselves,” Takai said in a statement released yesterday. “I had envisioned a long […]

CORRECTED: How do Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders match up on the eve of the Hawaii Democratic Presidential Preference Poll?

March 23, 2016 by Anthony Pignataro 10 Comments

It’s not the trash fire that marks this year’s Republican Party effort to pick a presidential candidate, but the race to be the 2016 Democratic Party nominee is anything but dull. While the Republicans knock each other over as to who can get the most votes by playing up racist fears against minorities, Muslims and […]

Hawaii Congressional delegation secures $47 million in federal funding for local schools

March 12, 2015 by Suzanne Kayian Leave a Comment

The Hawaii Congressional Delegation has announced that the U.S. Department of Education will allocate more than $47 million in Title I, Part A Grants to local educational agencies in Hawaii, Honolulu, Kauai and Maui counties for the 2015-2016 school year. Title I Grants to LEAs provide financial assistance to school districts for services that improve […]

Maui GMO Initiative Aside, County Voters Embrace Status Quo

November 5, 2014 by Anthony Pignataro 17 Comments

Given the strong mobilization of voters for the GMO Initiative, you’d expect more of an impact on the rest of the couple dozen local races on the ballot. But no. In fact, no Maui County incumbent lost on election night. The pro-GMO Initiative people even put together a slate of candidates–with the exception of incumbent […]
