Open the Public Restrooms

at the downtown Hilo Post Office/Federal Bldg.

      The Public restrooms at the downtown Hilo Post Office/Federal Building have been locked for 3 years. Numerous verbal and written complaints to Hawaii Congressional Representatives and Senators, and others, have gone nowhere. Rep. Kai Kahele’s office informed me that the GSA and the FSC of Hilo Fed. Bldg made the decision to close the public restrooms, but no names were provided.  Fed. Bldg. officials blame the homeless for dirtying the restrooms.

      The US spends $800 Billion or more annually on its war machine but can’t keep its Federal Bldg. public restrooms open and clean?  Something is wrong with that picture.  There are 6 or more public restrooms in the Hilo 3 floor Post Office/Fed. Bldg.  At least open the men’s and women’s restrooms on the ground floor to the public.

      Friday, Oct. 28, will mark our peace organization’s 1100th weekly Friday peace vigil at the downtown Hilo Post office/Federal Bldg. That’s 21 plus years. We started the day after Sept. 11, 2001. I give two other senior citizens a ride from Keaau nearly every week. One is an 89 year old Hawaiian Kupuna.  It’s insulting and demeaning that she and others have no public restrooms to use.

      Come on officials and Federal employees —  Stop showing contempt for the public that pays your salaries.  Unlock the public restrooms.  As Bob Dylan said, “Don’t stand in the doorways and block up the halls.”  You vote BILLIONS FOR WARS but provide Zero for clean public restrooms in the Hilo Fed. Bldg.
