To: The Hawaii State Senate
Oppose Scott Enright for Hawaii Dept. of Agriculture Head
We oppose the nomination of Scott Enright. He is unqualified, pro GMO, pro trashing the aina, pro animal cruelty, and a corporatist.
Why is this important?
Mr. Enright has bachelor’s degrees in psychology and philosophy and a Master of Science degree in conflict analysis and resolution. His work experience is inadequate for the Chair of the Dept. of Agriculture, and more appropriate for a corporate lobbyist.
He has been described as “Charged by the Governor to assist Big Island Dairy.”, which, on behalf of a private investment firm, will be trashing parts of Kauai and Big Island with waste, pesticides, deforestation, and perpetrating lots and lots of animal cruelty!
He has publicly opposed GMO labeling and wants state money to go into GMO research for animal feed, as well as many other livestock operation boondoggles.
He is opposed to pesticide regulation enforcement, including opposing money for additional inspectors, urging the legislature to allow self regulation by industry instead.
He is opposed to any pesticide buffer zones by parks, schools, and hospitals.
He is opposed to taking responsibility for the continued mismanagement of the state animal quarantine station.
He is the wrong nominee for the job and should be rejected.
