Hayashi State of Hawaii Board of Education Chairperson Catherine Payne Members of the State of Hawaii Board of Education Hawaii Governor David Y. Ige From: Concerned educators of Hawaii’s public schools Subject: The Safety Our Students Deserve The first weeks of the 2021–22 school year have been incredibly alarming as COVID-19 case counts skyrocket to record levels. Health and safety guidelines, including proper masking and social distancing, go unenforced in our schools. Reporting and notification remain inconsistent. A lack of personal protective equipment, improper ventilation, and other outstanding issues are not being addressed. We are seeing frequent failures to adhere to guidance with no support regarding COVID-19 response in our schools. This ultimately hurts the education we all believe is essential for our keiki. During the 2020–21 school year, the Hawaii State Teachers Association (HSTA) and the Hawaii State Department of Education (HIDOE) agreed to modify the HSTA collective bargaining agreement to ensure safer practices in the workplace in light of the COVID-19 pandemic in the form of a memorandum of understanding (MOU). However, this MOU expired on June 30, 2021, and the state refused to bargain a renewal and update of the MOU for the 2021–22 school year.

Deborah Anderson, who just happens to be the daughter of the wildly creative and risk- taking Yes front man Jon Anderson, is one of its residents. However, Deborah Anderson is far different from most of her well heeled celebrity neighbours. You can see it in her quaint and tidy little bungalow, which makes more of a statement about her rather than who she hired as her decorator. Sure, there are some requisite investment pieces (decadent raw silk-covered couches) and antiques blended with ‘I know people are simple tables and shelves. However, what gives her quick to judge, but if space life—and tells you a lot about where she’s coming from—are her expressive photographs I didn’t have the channelling Robert Mapplethorpe and Man Ray ability to do what I mixed with Asian art, crystals and family do, I wouldn’t be mementoes that show her clan was not the usual where I am.

  • Comments of the Ohio Treasurer of State
    ATTN: FEDERAL RESERVE RE: OHIO COMMUNITY RESOLUTIONS AND CITIZEN COMMENTS DOCKET # R -1314 (REGULATION AA) DATE: JUNE 30, 2008 CC: OFFICE OF THRIFT SUPERVISION NATIONAL CREDIT UNION ADMINISTRATION July 30, 2008 The Honorable Ben S. Bernanke Chairman, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System 20th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20551 RE: Docket #R-1314 (Regulation AA) Dear Chairman Bernanke: In the Ohio Treasury, we keenly focus on helping citizens better manage their personal finances. We host seminars and conferences, and created an interactive web site at www.yourmoneynowonline.org. While education is important, we also recognize the essential need for responsible regulation of improper and abusive credit practices in helping people navigate an increasingly complex financial world. We therefore strongly support the proposed changes to Regulation AA, which will place consumers and credit card companies on a more level playing field. Practices such as double-cycle billing, universal default, unreasonable payment dating, and raising interest rates on pre-existing balances, have unfairly cost consumers billions of dollars. We know this firsthand from surveying participants in our financial literacy programs and hearing countless stories of financial lives undermined by such abuses. For these reasons, the Ohio Treasury took seriously the request for public comment from the Federal Reserve Board, Office of Thrift Supervision, and National Credit Union Administration, on the proposed changes to Regulation AA. The reaction from citizens has been overwhelming. We are proud to transmit comments received from 4,623 Ohioans who have suffered from unfair and deceptive credit practices, all of which are included for your consideration.
