Equality was the big winner in Hawaii's general election Nov. 2, but we cannot rest.
Hawaii escaped the national wave that swept conservative candidates into office in 2010, but the 2012 election will be crucial as redistricting will place all candidates on the ballot in newly drawn districts.
We need to start work today to ensure the legislators that supported us are returned to office.
The advances we witnessed in 2011 can easily be repealed. Just look at New Hampshire where a new legislature is considering rolling back equality.
To help us invest in candidates that support equality, donate today.
You Made A Difference On Nov. 2
Thank You, Donors!
