To Open Government Supporters:

I’d like to invite you to a special transparency forum on Thursday, July 7, 6:30pm, at UH architecture auditorium. The forum features a well-known national deliberative democracy and transparency leader — Archon Fung. Archon is on the Common Cause board of directors, and one of his books includes Keiki Caucus and my own citizen engagement activities.

LES IHARA, JR.
