Going Native in Hawaii

I don't think the legal status of native Hawaiians is getting much play in other than Hawaii. At least this was the first time I read about it.

Now, 112 years after United States troops helped overthrow the independent Kingdom of Hawaii and 12 years after Congress apologized for it, that Hawaiian distinctiveness appears close to being formally recognized by the United States government. A bill that for the first time would extend sovereignty to the native Hawaiian people is poised for a vote - and likely approval - in the United States Senate

It's supported by the governor. It would be interesting to know what the view is from the Harris haoles in Oahu. For some reason, the view from the New York Times is just never quite the same.
