Big Island Video News has published the video of the Senate hearing on HB 1585 and 1985. I'm no fan of Ruderman but thought his argument against 1585 was excellent. I was disappointed, however, to see him support 1985 with reservations. He said he would support it because the public was given a chance to testify, but he failed to mention that the public testimony was nearly 100% against the bill. That just gives the impression that public testimony is only there so the law can be satisfied but public opinion ignored.
