Description | After a long series of weekend State Capitol deliberations – sometimes contentious – behind open doors with the Republican Caucus, State Senator Sam Slom (R-8 – Hawaii Kai – Diamond Head) emerged as the new Senate Minority Leader.
He is also the Minority Floor Leader and the Minority Policy Leader. There are no Minority Republican Whips. There is only one Republican State Senator after the November 2 election: Senator Slom.
Slom will meet with new Senate President, Shan Tsutsui of Maui, tomorrow.
Though out-numbered 24-1 in the Senate, Slom pledged to energetically and honorably represent the more than 45% of voters supporting Republican candidates, traditional values, and to continue his strenuous opposition to new and increased taxes, government spending and debt for all voters. |
