Welcome to Hawaii Conservation Voters

Our mission is to inform voters concerning environmental issues in Hawaii and to elect candidates to office who support a conservation ethic.

Come here when you want to know about environmental issues and candidates. We will do our best to keep you informed. You are welcome to share your ideas, concerns and knowledge. To do so, you will have to set up a gmail account and be invited to participate. Once you are logged in you will be able to comment on posts and make your own posts on any appropriate subject.

We are non-partican. We encourage a broad range of views and hope your participation here will help you make informed voting decisions.

Tell your friends about this site and encourage them to become environmentally informed voters.

We need all the help we can get, both of your time and expertise and of your money. If you can contribute financially that is great. But, the most important thing you can give us your time and knowlege.

We need to spread the word. We need to develop a rapid response communications net work using phone trees and e-mail. We need a phone bank of people who will contact voters and find out if they are concerned about the future of Hawaii and want to stay informed. On election day, we need to man a phone bank to make sure that everyone we talked to who does care about Hawaii gets out to vote. We need people who can monitor legislation and provide testimony on important issues before the legislature. And, we need fund raiser.

Hawaii Conservation Voters is a C-4. The League of Conservation Voters is our PAC and next summer we plan on setting up a C-3 which can accept tax deductable funds. Contributions to the C-4 or to the PAC are not tax deductable.
