outrage and effort applied by democrats
As the Hawaii House and Senate have no control over the Jones Act, any effort would have to come from our two US Senators within the 100 member US Senate, and our two US Representatives in the 435 member House.
Any US Senator or US Representative in a state with a shipbuilding industry, Democrat or Republican, or wealthy administration official with business ties to shipping (see earlier post) will be against the repeal of the Jones Act, no matter what type of legislation our Hawaii representatives might introduce.
The Donner Party really wasn't that great of a party, was it?
