Letter: RISE bond construction ads appear disingenuous
According to the advertisement by developers and the construction union, state Constitutional Amendment Question 2 will provide funds to improve and fix our power grids and roads, mitigate damage from storms and assist first responders. The Honolulu Star-Advertiser has published a letter criticising developers and the construction union for their misleading advertising about the state Constitutional Amendment Question 2, which provides funds to improve and fix power grids and roads, and assist first responders. The amendment states that it will not be funded by taxpayers but by the issuance of bonds, which will be repaid through taxes paid by the beneficiaries of the improvements. The author argues that if these funds are used to make roads safer, to mitigate damage from storms, who will be the beneficiaries? The article also criticizes politicians' endorsements of the RISE bond construction project.
