It’s important that our keiki learn about all of the communities that comprise our unique state. That's why I'm particularly grateful for the students leading the Filipino Curriculum Project, who are developing a curriculum to celebrate and teach Filipino history in our schools. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, Hawaii celebrates Sakada Day, the anniversary of the "First Fifteen" Filipino plantation workers arriving in Honolulu 116 years ago. As the largest minority population in Hawaii, the Filipino community has greatly contributed to our state's history, economy, and culture. — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump incited a deadly insurrection because he knew he lost the 2020 Election.   @January6thCmte presented clear evidence that Trump committed criminal offenses to block the peaceful transfer of power. It’s up to DOJ to make sure his crimes don’t go unanswered. — PolitiTweet.org

Along with my colleagues in the Hawaii Congressional Delegation, I'm calling for an @USGAO investigation into the DOD's response to PFAS contamination events at Red Hill. The people of Hawaii deserve answers about these incidents & what the DOD is doing to prevent future spills. — PolitiTweet.org

Before the Inflation Reduction Act, seniors with Medicare were the only population for whom vaccines weren't already free.   Isn't that ridiculous?   I fixed that by securing provisions in the IRA to ensure seniors with Medicare have access to free vaccines. Proud we got it done. — PolitiTweet.org

As one of the largest expansions of VA benefits in history, the PACT Act extends VA health care enrollment eligibility to Vietnam-era, Gulf War-era and Post-9/11 veterans. Help me get the word out so veterans can access the care they earned and deserve. https://t.co/PSDoiV7mAT — PolitiTweet.org

The Senate just passed the National Defense Authorization Act, which includes $1 billion I secured to close Red Hill. As a member of @SASCDems, my priority in NDAA has been to safely and quickly close Red Hill, and I'm proud I successfully secured this funding for that purpose. — PolitiTweet.org

For decades, Congress has provided funding to support survivors of gender-based violence through the Violence Against Women Act, including Native women who experience high levels of sexual violence.   However, Native Hawaiians have been excluded from accessing these resources. — PolitiTweet.org

Our nation changed forever when 26 lives were stolen at Sandy Hook Elementary. From active shooter drills to backpack bans, children live in fear they won't make it home from school. It's been 10 years since that tragic day, our keiki deserve stronger gun safety laws now. — PolitiTweet.org

The House-passed NDAA included language to require the DOD to transition its non-combat vehicle fleet to electric and other zero-emissions vehicles by 2035. Congress has a responsibility to reduce the military’s carbon emissions and this bill is a step in the right direction. — PolitiTweet.org

54 cents. Latina workers make 54 cents on the dollar compared to non-Hispanic white men for the same work. It shouldn't take nearly 2 years for Latinas to earn the same income white men make in a year for the same job. We must pass the Paycheck Fairness Act. #LatinaEqualPay — PolitiTweet.org
