Scheduled Topic for Thursday, May 8th:
Legislative Wrap-Up

The 2008 Legislative Session has just concluded and it's time to find out what our elected representatives have accomplished over the past four months. What passed, what failed and why? What priorities did state lawmakers choose in this tight budget year? Join host Dan Boylan as he talks with State House and Senate leaders, and journalists covering the State Capitol.

Our guests for this week's main panel will be:

Calvin Say - Speaker of the House
Colleen Hanabusa - Senate President

This hour-long program will be rebroadcast on Sunday, May 11 at 3:30pm.

This live, one-hour, call-in program takes on Hawaii's hot-button issues in real time. Our viewers' questions and comments drive the program. Their calls have swamped our phone bank on timely topics like the Superferry, rail transit, and Hawaii's risk from bird flu. We'll be revisiting these issues as well as other concerns about public education, the widening gap between "haves" and "have-nots," politics and more. Host Dan Boylan provides balance and that rare phenomenon these days - the follow-up question.
