Hanabusa on Hiring Local
Rep. Colleen Hanabusa counts 14 people who work in her Washington and Hawaii offices. A point of pride: Only three of those staffers don’t have Hawaii ties, she says.
“People have this image that somehow they can’t compete,” Hanabusa said in an interview with Civil Beat on Wednesday. “What my office shows is that local kids have the future. They can go and do whatever they want to do, and they shouldn’t be intimidated by what they think is Washington, D.C.”
