Council Member Ruggles Town Hall on War Crimes - MsBoejangles - 09-17-2018
Council member Ruggles welcomes the public to attend this meeting to speak with her about her recent decision to refrain from legislating until the County's attorney assures her that she is not committing war crimes.
Ruggles will have copies of the letter from the United Nations Human Rights Council that prompted her to take this action, materials to educate constituents as on their rights as protected persons, and share the work she has been doing to continue represent and advocate on behalf of her district. Ruggles says she hopes that constituents will take advantage of this opportunity and attend.
The meeting stems from an announcement that Ruggles made on August 21st stating that she had come to understand that she may be in violation of her oath of office to uphold the U.S. Constitution and may be incurring criminal liability under both U.S. federal law and international law.
There will time reserved for questions and feedback on this complex and profoundly implicating topic.
Date: Monday, September 24th
Time: 6pm
Place: Kea`au Community Center (16-186 Pili Mua St)
