"Big Oil is raking in huge profits while Hawaiʻi families pay the price. Proud to stand with the Sierra Club against the so-called Stop Climate Shakedowns Act, which would shield fossil fuel corporations from accountability and leave our people footing the bill. Our communities deserve their day in court, and our keiki deserve a future worth fighting for."

"Today is Election Day! Every vote matters, and every voice deserves to be heard. Drop off your ballot at an official drop box or voter service center, or vote in person by 7 p.m. You can find your nearest polling location at https://t.co/epeo0ebpZp. A big mahalo to our election workers and volunteers across the islands for all they do to keep our democracy strong."

"Mahalo to Roots Reborn for bringing our Maui ʻohana together to celebrate Día de los Muertos and honor the loved ones we lost in the Lahaina fires. Though they are no longer with us, we will carry their memories, celebrate their lives, and continue forward guided by the love they left behind. They will always be part of Lahaina."

"Mahalo to Hawaiian Community Assets for meeting with me in Hilo to discuss the Trump administration’s attempts to cut HUD housing counseling funding. From preventing foreclosures to helping families achieve homeownership, their work is vital to our communities. I’ll keep fighting to protect these critical services and the families who depend on them."

"Congratulations to Hilo’s inaugural Pre-Apprenticeship Construction Training graduates! PACT opens door to construction careers through hands-on experience and apprenticeship preparation—helping our young people build a good career, raise a family, and stay right here at home. Mahalo to the Building Industry Association of Hawaiʻi, local partners, families, and mentors for helping our students build the skills and confidence to succeed in Hawaiʻi."

"Mahalo to the Native Hawaiian Organizations Association (NHOA) for bringing together so many dedicated businesses and community partners for their Annual Community Showcase. Native Hawaiian organizations do so much to uplift our communities, create opportunities, and give back to our people. I’m grateful for all that you do and will keep fighting to protect the programs and opportunities that help our communities thrive."

"Visiting PACT Head Start in Hilo and Kona was a powerful reminder of what these programs mean for our keiki and families. From helping children find their voices to building stronger communities, Head Start changes lives for generations. As the Trump administration threatens its funding, I will continue to speak out against any cuts that put our children’s future at risk. Our keiki and their families deserve nothing less. Mahalo to our incredible Head Start educators and staff!"

"One step closer to home for more Maui families recovering from the wildfires. ❤️ Through the federally funded Hoʻokumu Hou program, 18 more families can take the next step toward finding a place to call home, with up to $600,000 in assistance. That brings the total to 100 families moving closer to rebuilding their lives on Maui. Mahalo to Maui County and our partners for continuing to fight for the resources our families need to rebuild, put down roots, and remain home on Maui."

"Mahalo to Hawaiʻi Farmers Union for bringing us together in Waimānalo for your 16th Annual Convention. Our family farmers deserve better. We must undo the harm caused by federal cuts, tariffs & rising costs. And we have to unrig a system that favors big corporations over family farms, and recover from disasters by building back stronger and protecting our farmland. Our farmers know how to overcome adversity. We need to give them the resources to do it."

"Congratulations to the Ilocos Surian Association of Maui on 22 years of service to our Filipino community. Honored to celebrate this milestone, the first Miss Teen Ilocos Surian Maui coronation, and the honoring of outstanding leaders and members. From supporting families to investing in our keiki through scholarships, your work carries forward the spirit of the sakadas who helped build Hawaiʻi 120 years ago. Mahalo for keeping our community and culture strong. Mabuhay!"
