Issue Position: Responsive Government

Issue Position

Rep. Marcus Oshiro worked hard to earn the trust of our district. Each day, I will honor that trust and preserve your right to participate in government.

Public officials are accountable, first and foremost, to the people who elect them. They can only be successful if they are transparent in their actions.

​I will host community forums to ensure that your voice is heard in the decision-making process and to keep our community informed about what is happening in government. Through the use of social media and local media outlets, like 'Olelo Broadcasting, I hope to strengthen our community's engagement in public affairs.
​​
I believe that we should move away from a governmental bureaucracy that benefits a privileged few to a democratic system that responds to everyone's needs. As much as possible, we should remember that all politics is local, that power ultimately rests in the hands of the people, and that our society can only move forward when we protect the liberty and civil rights of all of Hawai'i's citizens
