Campaign themes

2016

Campagna's campaign website highlighted the following issues:

“	Education: Let’s work together to: Prepare our keiki for a future that is changing at a faster pace every day. Increase the opportunities for all schools to help their students achieve greater goals. Provide all public schools and the teachers with the best infrastructure and technology we can afford and then find ways to afford more; Including AC in the classrooms. Provide each child with the tools to succeed, not just in the classroom, but at home and on the job. Raise the standard and then be there to help each child achieve the goals. formalize the tenure program for the University. ensure the collective bargaining rights for the faculty Hire quality full professors to align the economic future of Hawaii with the future of the University Community: Let’s work together to: Level the playing field so all our keiki have an equal chance for success, regardless of economic background. They all deserve the chance. Provide consistent support and help for adult care home providers so that our Kupuna can enjoy the best possible quality of life. We owe them that respect. Provide more funding to State foster care and adoptions programs and services to better protect families and keiki. Create a path out of homelessness with volunteer work-to-live programs that educate and train people into higher paying positions, sanctioned by the unions. Let’s create a direct line for our keiki, especially foster keiki, from care to education, employment and apartments. We need appropriate mental health institutions and care rather than sending those in need of mental health services to prisons or kicked out onto the streets. Resource Security: Let’s work together to: Put serious thought and effort into how our utility is structured and how to proceed to a more sustainable structure and renewable future. The NextEra merger is a promise of more of the same vertical, for-profit monopoly and we can do better for our future generations. This includes the improvement of infrastructure and the billing mechanism. Conserve and preserve our natural resources which include monitoring our fresh water aquifers and preventing dangerous chemical runoff to enter our drinking water as well as our beautiful ocean shorelines and coral reefs. Continue the important study of the long term effects of climate change and how it will impact our islands, our homes, our beaches and our fresh drinking water. Food Security: Let’s work together to: Just a few short generations ago locally grown food provided 50% of our consumed foods, it is time return to that. Address the nutritional values of what we are feed our keiki in school and develop a strategy to bring more locally grown foods to our schools. Assess and change our school meal menus to better reflect the foods that we grow here in Hawaii. Establish a local food hub and distribution network to better support the local farmers. Incentivize local farmers to grow more foods for local consumption. Economy: Let’s work together to: To increased economic and educational opportunities for ALL. To close the gap of inequality if we are to see any real and sustainable changes. Real affordable housing programs to help people stay of the streets and maintain their dignity. Workforce programs that focus on community growth and infrastructure, park and street clean-ups, etc. Grow and strengthen the unions and fight against any right to work or union weakening legislation.	”
