CMNI, according to Sen. Akaka

Those who wanted to be `in the know` stayed wide awake from 12:30 a.m. to 2:30 a.m. on Feb. 9 (Saipan time) to listen and watch via video the U.S. Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee`s hearing on the CNMI`s labor, immigration, law enforcement and economic issues.

Sen. Akaka, one of the committee members, mistakenly called the CNMI "CMNI" more than once. I wonder how could such a powerful Senate committee that would initiate the "federalization" of the CNMI`s immigration system could not even call the commonwealth by its proper acronym?
