“Being elected to the State House in 2006 was a tremendous honor. I have worked hard to earn the trust voters placed in me and my first three sessions were successful ones. My highest priority bills have passed and I have worked in a bipartisan manner to advance an agenda that benefits the residents of the 28th District and the State of Hawaii as a whole.” -- Karl Rhoads
Lower Housing Costs, Less Crime and Better Education
In 2006, I ran on a platform of lowering the high cost of housing, reducing area crime and improving the education system. My legislative record shows that these are the areas where I have focused my attention at the Legislature. To see the committees I am on and the bills I have introduced go to About Karl.
I have been deeply involved in my community for many years. As a State Legislator, I have been able to effect positive change in the neighborhoods of District 28 and in our State, and I very much appreciate your continued support. While being a member of the House is considered a part-time job, there is plenty of work to do and as long as my personal financial situation allows, I intend to work full-time on your behalf.
As you know, legislators received an increase in pay this year. In solidarity with all those in our state who are experiencing financial hardship during this difficult time, I have contributed my entire increase to various charities.
Bringing Honesty Back To Government
During the 2006 campaign you may have received a mailing from my political opponents attacking my wife and distorting my record. I am happy to say that my opponents' decision to “go negative” in a last-minute attempt to manipulate the voters of the 28th District failed. Let me set the record straight.
