THE PUBLIC CAN HELP SAVE YOUNG BROTHERS BY SENDING TESTIMONY TO THE PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION, say supporters of the interisland shipping company. The PUC must approve any funding from the federal and state government, which may provide up to $25 million in CARES ACT funding to the shipping company to prevent its drastic reduction in services and possible closure. The infusion of cash is aimed at keeping Young Bros. operating at least through December. Comments can be emailed to puc@hawaii.gov, referencing the May 26, 2020 Young Brothers and or Consumer Advocate letters, which asked the PUC to approve the aid. Read the letters from Young Brothers and the Consumer Advocate, a statement to the public from Young Bros, and testimony, here.
     The COVID-19 pandemic hit Young Bros. hard, with fewer goods shipped between islands. It announced a loss of nearly $8 million through April and projected losses totaling approximately $25 million by the end of the year.
     The pandemic also led to restrictions on agricultural goods. Kaʻū Coffee farmers can no longer send coffee in Young Bros, mixed shipping containers shared with other customers. Coffee headed to buyers in Honolulu must be on its own pallet, wrapped to keep it from rain, sun, and wind on the deck of the barge, exposing it to temperature variables that can damage the coffee. This means that some farmers are holding back coffee or shipping by air, a much more expensive venture. Shipping of cattle and horses have also been restricted but Young Bros announced it is "establishing special procedures to continue transporting livestock between the islands after June 8, 2020."
     In addition, Young Bros. reduced its schedule to Hilo and Kahului to one day a week in order to save $6 million.
     When questioned by West Hawaiʻi Today in his Monday news conference, Gov. David Ige said he is "working with all of the mayors. We all understand the importance of Young Bros. in connecting our islands and being able to efficiently distribute goods all across the state. So, I'm working with the mayors and the state administration in Department of Commerce & Consumer Affair, Department of Business, Economic Development & Tourism, and other appropriate agencies, to work with Young Brothers and identify what their situation is, and look for various pots of federal money and assistance that we can provide, and state resources if necessary. All of the mayors and all of the elected officials understand that Young Brothers is critical infrastructure that is needed in our community and we are all committed to ensuring that they continue to provide service in a way that allows our communities to function moving forward."

Kaʻū Voices protest the death of George Floyd, peacefully holding signs at the intersection of Highway 11 
and South Point Road on Sunday. Photo from Kaʻū Voices
KAʻŪ VOICES PROTESTED THE DEATH OF GEORGE FLOYD and Kaʻū legislators and a defender of indigents spoke out. On Sunday, Kaʻū  Voices stood along Kaʻū roads with signs saying, I Can't Breathe; No One is Above the Law, even the Men in Blue; and Silence is Compliance, Speak Up for Justice.
   The  46-year-old black man died on May 25 while handcuffed, lying on the street, when a police officer pressed his knee into Floyd's neck while fellow officers stood by, and bystanders and Floyd begged for his life. Floyd's death sparked protests in front of American embassies around the world and citizen marches in cities across the U.S., to oppose racism and police brutality. Accompanying the protests are opportunists following the peace marches to destroy property and loot businesses, according to police chiefs and mayors. Most officials have established curfews for their cities, to separate the protests from the violent destruction that tends to be at night.
Artists' images of George Lloyd with the words I Can't Breath are painted on walls around the world,
including this one in Berlin, Germany.
     The Minneapolis police department fired the police officer, Derek Chauvin. He is booked on murder and manslaughter charges. The other officers who stood by as Floyd died, are fired and are expected to be charged.  
     In a tweet, Gov. David Ige posted, "We join in mourning the tragic death of #GeorgeFloyd and send our aloha to his family and friends. We understand the sadness, 
disappointment, anger, and fear that so many across our nation live with daily. And we stand with those peacefully protesting long-standing injustices. Diversity is highly valued in #Hawaii, and we believe our residents can show the world how we live together respectfully." Mayor Harry Kim, and the other three mayors in the state, added their names to the statement.
     Sen. Brian Schatz said, "I don't know what 'knelt on' even means but the word is murdered."
     Sen. Mazie Hirono said, "Racism is never far beneath the surface in our country. The brutal murder of George Floyd forces all of us to confront the devaluation and dehumanization of black lives. We must stand together in solidarity for justice. #BlackLivesMatter"
     Rep. Tulsi Gabbard said, "Watching George Floyd's death was sickening and heartbreaking. There is no excuse. These officers must be more than just fired - George and his family deserve justice. This is not just an isolated incident. We as a nation must take action to bring systemic change. #GeorgeFloyd
Kaʻū Voices bring visibility in person, along the road, for the
death of George Floyd. Photo from Kaʻū Voices
     Sen. Kai Kahele said, "America is in a profound national crisis. The murder, in broad daylight, of #GeorgeFloyd by a racist police officer is another repulsive and pathetic example of the racial injustices and institutionalized racism that has existed in this country since our founding. Ignoring these deep issues for far too long has brought our country to the brink of social catastrophe and we are now forced to address it. Rioting and violence provide absolutely no solutions to these acute problems and will only embolden the strengthening of the law enforcement establishment and create an aggressive and hostile police environment. Nonviolent resistance has always been the most effective alternative to physical violence. These riots must end. The hatred and bitterness in this country must end. But at the same time, America must change. #BlackLivesMatter"
     Michael Neal, who worked as an intern on Kaʻū Calendar projects in high school and is now an attorney working with indigent criminal defense on the mainland, wrote:
     "In these recorded and indisputable acts of police brutality, we are seeing what the Black community and advocates in the criminal justice system have seen for a very, very long time but were sneered at by judges and prosecutors alike, and never believed by society at large. In one of my first trials, a client swore the police planted drugs in her car. Nobody believed her. Another client was raped by a jail guard, and no one believed him (and in fact the judge threw him in jail for 'lying.') And a young black man had a gun pointed at him on a minor violation of probation, and the judge shrugged and threw him in jail.
     "Those who wield the power to deprive life and liberty, and society at large, must finally take criminal justice seriously and demand an equal, humane, just system. No more alligator tears, empty promises, and feigned outrage from the same perpetrators of injustice. Change now."

KAI KAHELE'S BID FOR U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES is endorsed by Sen. Mazie Hirono. She said, "I look forward to working with him in Congress on education, health care, and other critical issues, as we face unprecedented challenges and look for ways to move our nation and our state forward."
     The campaign for Kahele, who seeks to represent Kaʻū and all of rural Hawaiʻi, shared the endorsement on social media: "We are honored to have her support and endorsement of Kai, along with endorsements from Hawai‘i U.S. Senator Brian Schatz and U.S. Congressman Ed Case. #StrongerTogether #KaheleforCongress"
     Kahele is also endorsed by three former Hawaiʻi governors – John Waiheʻe, Ben Cayetano, and Neil Abercrombie – and dozens of other public figures and organizations.

HALTING CUTS TO THE SNAP PROGRAM is the goal of Hawaiʻi Attorney General Clare Connors. She joined a coalition on Monday that sent a letter to Congress, urging the body to block the Trump administration's attempts to cut "vital food assistance for millions of Americans."
     The Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program, previously known as "food stamps," is "our country's most important anti-hunger program and a critical part of federal and state efforts to help lift people out of poverty," said a statement from Connors. The program provides people with limited incomes the opportunity to buy nutritious food that they otherwise could not afford. In March alone, said Conners, 40 percent of American households with incomes below $40,000 lost jobs, and from March 15 to May 15 of this year, 40.8 million Americans filed for unemployment.
     The coalition argues that, "especially during this unprecedented time of economic turmoil due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, Congress should work to protect and expand our nation's largest anti-hunger program." The changes to SNAP would cut food assistance by making it harder to qualify for SNAP food assistance benefits, reducing State flexibility to continue benefits beyond the three-month limit, and reducing benefit amounts for certain households.
     Connors said, "We should be collectively working towards making sure everyone has access to nutritious food. It is imperative, even more so during a pandemic, that we oppose rules cutting food-assistance to millions of Americans."

Telehealth in action helps vulnerable populations receive healthcare.
Photo from Big Island Video News
TELEHEALTH MEANS MORE HEALTHCARE for vulnerable populations in Hawaiʻi, according to speakers during Monday's state COVID-19 Joint Information meeting. Department of Health reported accelerating adoption of telehealth, especially in Hawaiʻi's community health centers – federally qualified health centers – which service "the state's most vulnerable populations."
     Patients who receive care at these centers pay for their care on a sliding scale discount, depending upon their household incomes. With a combined total of $670,000 from the Hawaiʻi State Legislature and federal telehealth grant awards, DOH, in collaboration with the University of Hawaiʻi Area Health Education Center and Pacific Basin Telehealth Resource Center, provided the "necessary policy guidance and technical support" for community health centers to take advantage of new federal telehealth reimbursement policies. This includes weekly webinars on the basics of telehealth for providers.
     Laura Arcibal, the DOH telehealth and health care access coordinator, said, "It has been an intensely busy time and it has been amazing to see our community partners and healthcare providers come together at such a critical time to help Hawaiʻi's families access healthcare services from home."
     Primary care, behavioral health, and COVID-19 screening are services patients can access via telehealth at hawaiicovid19.com/telehealth.

     "The Island and State have done very well in minimizing the spread of Coronavirus. This has allowed Hawaiʻi to go forward and has been identified by the Johns Hopkins University as tied with Montana for the lowest per capita infection rate in the Nation. Ongoing forward, know that the virus threat remains and we need to continue to follow the prevention policies of face coverings, distancing, and gatherings. A grateful thank you to the community of Hawaiʻi for doing your part to keep Hawaiʻi safe and together. Thank you for listening. Have a safe day in beautiful Hawaiʻi. This is your Hawaiʻi County Civil Defense Agency."
