COS Team Brings Aloha to the Hawaii Capitol




Hawaii team members Left to Right: Brett Kulbis, Jason Horstman, Donna and Jack Van Osdol, Lei Lono, Rita Kama-Kimura, Jim Ray, Lori Nip, Ginger Goodwin, Chanara Richmond and Mark White.

On January 24, eleven Convention of States Hawaii team volunteers began their 6-week long, every Wednesday for 1 hour, State Capitol Visit Surge Campaign.

Beginning at noon, the team assembled on the ground floor (photo) and after a review of the day’s handouts, quickly moved through security checks to distribute Article V literature to all House and Senate offices.  

Materials passed out to offices included bookmarks with individual district petition signature information for each legislator, plus a new trifold flyer available from the COS PrintShop emphasizing the “we the people“ nature of our Article V effort.

The ultimate purpose for these visits is to persuade our elected officials to sponsor our COS Resolution, but the main activity in dropping by any office is to build relationships with that office manager and staff.  Our Hawaii team members, both experienced and new, found that task easy, if not downright fun to do.
