State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on International Affairs, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 211 entitled:
"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REAFFIRMING THE VALUE AND MEANING OF ALOHA IN THE FACE OF POTENTIAL MILITARY ACTION AGAINST IRAQ,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this concurrent resolution is to:
(1) Reaffirm the value and meaning of aloha in the face of potential military action against Iraq; and
(2) Support alternative, nonviolent solutions to the current crisis in Iraq.
Hui Ho'oulu, Inc., and a concerned individual testified in support of this measure. The Hawaiian Political Action Council of Hawaii supported the intent of this measure.
Your Committee has amended this concurrent resolution by:
(1) Reflecting that the military action against Iraq is now current, and no longer a potential conflict; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments to correct a typographical error and for purposes of clarity and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on International Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.C.R. No. 211, as amended herein, and recommends its adoption in the form attached hereto as H.C.R. No. 211, H.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on International Affairs,
