SCR 120 OPPOSE HERE: capitol.hawaii.gov/measure_indiv.aspx?billtype=SCR&billnumber=120&year=2014 SR 63 OPPOSE HERE: capitol.hawaii.gov/measure_indiv.aspx?billtype=SR&billnumber=63 This is what the Koch Bros. want! in a 2011 Private Prison Report from the Reason Foundation (Kochs) they were drooling all over the Hawaii Public Lands Development Corporation/PLDC Bill (Act 55) and talked about investing in Hawaii prisons and mentioning Hawaiis drug problem, (code for unlimited inmates and occupancy into the next century) They buy, build, and run, the prisons.. Baaaaad news. Many of these boiler plate Public/Private/Partnership bills are coming straight from ALEC, (Koch Bros.) into the legislatures of all 50 states. STOP THEM. *Same as HCR 134, heard & passed, yesterday: The committees on PBS recommend that the measure be PASSED, WITH AMENDMENTS.
