The discussion will include Sens. Fukunaga (Sen. District 11) and Clarence Nishihara (Senate District 18), and Rep. McKelvey (House District 10).
“Utilizing this type of interactive broadcasting tool is something that is relatively new to the Legislature,” said Senator Will Espero. “This event will provide a great opportunity to explore engagement with the public utilizing such platforms. I look forward to continuing to host similar events in the future.”
