Wait a minute guys, whats wrong with the funds going to the Hilo lab where they are ready and already in motion for work and the DOH is not. The Hilo lab will help everyone. We have a problem and it needs work now. Damn right it's politics and ouster senator is to blame is why she's ousted. Of course not sure what novice  Senator Kahele expects for not paying dues yet. Isn't that how our politicians play games?  They're all bad and need to go.  Why the heck can't they do the right things timely. Biggest cause of inflation to taxpayers is Hawaii state politicians. They had all session to waste time on stupid things instead of important ones. Sad. Yes, I'm pissed.
