In Hawaiʻi, a small loaf of bread now costs $8. Families are struggling just to put food on the table. 🧵

Always enjoy going to the Hawaii United Okinawa Association Installation & Uchinanchu of the Year celebration! Filled with family, friends, comfort food & music—it reminds us that in difficult times, we can always lean on each other and our culture.

Honored to share this special moment with fire-impacted families becoming first time homebuyers via the County’s Hoʻokumu Hou First-Time Homebuyer Program. Glad to celebrate this next step in rebuilding lives, hope, & stability on Maui. Happy home shopping and mahalo to all moving recovery forward.

Aloha Lahaina 🤍 Glad to visit and see recovery taking shape—From Front Street seawall repairs to restored gathering spaces and new homes for healthcare workers & families. Always moved by this community’s strength, resilience, and hope.

Hawaiʻi is in a housing state of emergency. 1 in 3 families are thinking about leaving the place they call home. With median home prices starting at $1M, our kamaʻāina are being priced out of Hawaiʻi itself. 🧵

This week, Hawaiʻi received termination notices for mental health grants totaling $26M, funding mental health & substance use programs for 200,000+ people—including for suicide prevention, child and adolescent mental health, alcohol & drug abuse, and family health services across the state.

This week, my colleagues & I joined @RepRobinKelly in introducing articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem. The reprehensible shooting of Renee Good by an ICE agent & the targeted violence and discrimination we are witnessing in Hawaiʻi & across the country demands accountability and justice.

Today, I voted to protect Hawaiʻi families from skyrocketing health costs. Without these premium tax credits, families face impossible choices & hospitals risk closure. Now, Congress is closer to protecting protecting affordable coverage & stabilizing rural health systems.

Today marks five years since January 6, the insurrection at the Capitol. No amount of propaganda can erase the truth: our democracy endured because of the bravery of Capitol Police and law enforcement who sacrificed so much to protect it. We honor them, today and always. Mahalo.

Doug and I didn’t agree on everything, but we always showed up for each other. We cosponsored bills. We spoke on the floor about the things we cared about, like disaster funding and rural health care. We traded jabs during Farm Bill hearings and markups.

At a time when Americans can’t afford rent, healthcare, or groceries, the Trump administration found time and money for regime change in Venezuela, risking a war that Americans don’t want.

As the year comes to a close, I’m proud to share my 2025 End of Year Report. Every day, my focus has been on making life more affordable for families across Hawaiʻi by lowering health care and food costs, standing up for working families and kūpuna, and protecting & strengthening our democracy.

Enjoyed being able to spread some holiday cheer to kids at the Toys for Tots drop-off in D.C., with a surprise visit from my constituent Stitch. Mahalo to the Marine Corps & all the dedicated volunteers who make this effort possible and help brighten Christmas for keiki across the country.

Without immediate action, millions of Americans, especially families in Hawaiʻi, will face unaffordable health care premium increases on January 1.
We have bipartisan support to force a vote to stop this from happening and save healthcare. Let's get this done today.

The discharge petition to force a vote on extending ACA tax credits has received the necessary 218 signatures.
We are demanding an immediate vote in the House to extend these tax credits before December 31. Congress should not leave for the holidays without stopping premiums from skyrocketing.

Rural families have carried the burden of strained health care for far too long. We’re done being told to “make do.” It’s time for a rural health-care revolution that delivers dependable, affordable care close to home:

Rural America needs a health care revolution
From the volcano-lined communities of Ka’ to the corn belt of the Midwest, one truth is clear: rural America is being asked to survive a health care system that is flat-out failing us.

Mahalo to We Are Oceania for meeting to discuss how we can better protect & support Micronesian families who live, work, and contribute to Hawaiʻi. Grateful for your work with the Pacific Islanders who call our islands home.

Happy to join Wreaths Across America Hawaiʻi, military families & local students at the Hawaiʻi State Capitol as they launch the season of remembrance — a time to pay our respects and honor those who sacrificed for our freedom. Mahalo for your service, not just today, but every day.

Joined my CPC colleagues to sound the alarm: Trump’s targeting of people based on how they look or where they come from and his assault on legal pathways to citizenship must stop. Eighty years after Japanese Americans were imprisoned, we are breaking our promise to do better. Enough is enough.

Honored to sit with these aspiring nursing students from Chaminade as they explore rural health & how to address health disparities & mental health access in homeless communities in Waiʻanae & throughout our state. Mahalo for the heart and compassion you bring to our future health care workforce!
