Letter: A chance to fix Hawaii’s same-sex marriage law
CRAIG T. KOJIMA / 2022
People wave flags along Kalakaua Avenue during the 2022 Honolulu Pride Parade and Festival.
We all make mistakes. Some 25 years ago, enough people in Hawaii were uncomfortable with same-sex marriage to amend our state Constitution so that the Legislature could limit it. But times have changed, and today it seems absurd that a group of people would be denied this fundamental right.
The good news is that we can fix our mistake. All you have to do is vote “yes” on constitutional amendment Question No. 1. It is hard to get amendments like this on the ballot, so we might not get another chance.
