HONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - About 300 people gathered for a rally in Kalihi Saturday to celebrate International Workers Day.
But, organizers said they were also there to protest against an indifferent state government which they say has been slow to deliver unemployment benefits for people who lost their jobs during the pandemic.
“They’re waiting for six, seven, eight months. That is just unacceptable,” said Rev. Sam Domingo of the Hawaii Workers Center. “And we’re going to hold our leaders and government very much accountable.”
