MEDIA RELEASE

Dear Friends,

Happy New Year!

Another year has come and I am honored to continue to represent you and work on your behalf in the State Senate.

Working together over the past eight years we have achieved great results for our community, including more state investment in our roads, schools, and hospitals than we have seen in decades.

Over the past year alone we brought several major new projects to West Hawaii, including funding for a new Kona courthouse, our own community college, and important new highway construction. These projects will help create jobs, stimulate our economy, and build our community and civic life for years to come.

In my role as Chairman of the Senate Health Committee during the coming legislative session, I will keep fighting to strengthen Hawaii’s healthcare system, with better hospitals, more access to care, and a safer, healthier environment for everyone in Hawaii.

So I can better understand your needs and represent you, I will continue to hold talk story meetings in West Hawaii throughout the New Year, including:

Monday, January 9
Kona Community Hospital, 11:30 am – 1:30 pm
Senator Green will give the keynote speech on healthcare transformation in America and what it means to West Hawaii.
Sponsored by the Kona Community Hospital Auxiliary

Tuesday, January 10
Old Kona Airport Pavilion (Makaeo), 6:00 – 8:00 pm
Talk Story addressing the upcoming legislative session and priorities for West Hawaii.
Sponsored by Kona Town Hall Meeting

Friday, January 20
Waikoloa School Cafeteria, 6:00 – 8:00 pm
Talk Story with the community

Please come share your thoughts and ideas and let me know how state government can better serve you. Let’s keep working together to achieve more great results for our community and to make Hawaii an even better place to live.

I look forward to seeing you soon. And again, from my family to yours, have a safe and happy New Year.

Aloha,

Josh Green
