When I heard this story it pissed me off. The Hawaii State Ethics Commission has become the Grinch that stole Christmas from the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
Macy's has a campaign "Believe” that urges kids to write letters to Santa to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. This is a great cause and a good class project to practice writing skills. Macy's will donate $1 to Make-A-Wish for each letter that a student turns in to a Macy's store.
The State of Hawaii commission issued an advisory saying that the state ethics code prohibits state of Hawaii workers to promote charities on work time. Mainland schools participate in this great campaign without harassment from their local government.
State of Hawaii write better laws and make some exceptions on stupid laws that you write.
