Have you ever met Kaniela Ing?  Or his constituents?  Or the Maui community that LOVES him?  One word, PONO.  

Moving back to Hawaii from the continent was tough, especially with all these job opportunities paying such meager wages.  Hawai'i, we are DUE for a huge shift in the way we operate this island.  We are losing Hawaii to major international high-rollers which are benefiting off the low operational costs.  Why not raise the minimum wage to a level which can compete with our expensive economy?  Less homeless and unemployment!  We need more Kaniela Ings and Tulsi Gabbards in that room.
