Maui Fire Victims Seek Answers at Washington Oversight Hearing

Grieving family members and survivors of the Maui wildfires have gathered in Washington D.C. to seek answers and accountability regarding the fatal disaster. The U.S. House Energy & Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations is conducting a hearing to investigate Hawaiian Electric's possible role in the fires. The families impacted by the tragedy have submitted written testimony, describing how the fire has affected them. While they will not be called on for in-person testimony, they hope to find some accountability for those who may have played a role in the tragedy.
