The unfortunate reality is that 1 in 3 households in Hawaiʻi experience food insecurity. Mahalo to everyone who stopped by our 3rd Annual Food Drive Fest to support @hawaiifoodbank 🥫👏
You can still help end hunger in Hawaiʻi by visiting hawaiifoodbank.org/state.
Over the past couple of months, I’ve had the pleasure of welcoming visiting students to my office. Whether from Hawai‘i or beyond, it’s always a joy to meet with the next generation of leaders at the Capitol.
Each time I speak with students, I’m reminded of my commitment to public service and inspired by their curiosity and passion for civic engagement. Mahalo to the many bright young leaders who have stopped by!
Happy Easter! 🐰🐣

Broadband relies on three key pillars: infrastructure, devices, and know-how.
I sat down with the Pacific Telecommunication Council (PTC) to talk about our state’s #ConnectKakou initiative, which aims to make high-speed, affordable internet available statewide. Together, we can bridge the digital divide and foster inclusivity and connectivity for all.
E Hana No Nā Keiki” means “Work for the children,” — and this Week of the Young Child, I’m reminded how deeply meaningful that work is.
Our keiki are the heart of Hawaiʻi’s future. That’s why we’re committed to expanding access to quality early learning so that every child has the foundation they need to thrive.

It’s April Fool’s Day and my staff made this blooper reel of me 😂 Making lots of video messages means lots of hiccups and do-overs— hope you get a laugh out of this like I did. A good reminder not to take ourselves too seriously!
Celebrating 70 years of knowledge, community, and aloha at Kapa‘a Public Library 📚👏
I had the pleasure of speaking with Caroline, a dedicated volunteer and longtime Kapa‘a resident. For her and so many others, Kapa‘a Library has been a pillar of learning and connection for generations. Mahalo to the incredible staff and volunteers for your dedication and hard work.
That’s a wrap on our 2nd Annual Hawaiʻi-USDA Policy Summit—a productive and engaging series of meetings with our federal agriculture partners.
During our visit, we met with U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins (@secrollins) —and our Hawaiʻi delegation was proud to be the first state delegation to visit the USDA.
Throughout the summit, we explored the unique challenges and opportunities facing Hawaiʻi’s agricultural sector, from regulatory barriers for farmers to biosecurity and local food production.
Mahalo to @usdagov for being a steadfast partner in ensuring that Hawaiʻi’s farmers, ranchers, and producers have the resources they need to thrive and continue supporting our communities.
Hawaiʻi’s agriculture sector is a critical part of our communities and economy. Together with our state’s leaders in farming, ranching, and commerce — we’re in D.C. to meet with @usdagov and discuss Hawaiʻi’s most pressing agriculture needs.
With a continuous push and pull at the federal level, we’re watching closely how our local nonprofits and many support services are being impacted.
Happy Women’s History Month! ✨ While I’m honored to serve as Hawai‘i’s 16th Lieutenant Governor, I’m only the third woman to hold this position. This month, I’m recognizing the two trailblazing women who paved the way before me—the late Jean King and U.S. Senator Mazie Hirono.
Their incredible legacies as lieutenant governors have not only opened doors for women in politics but have also created a better Hawai‘i for all. Let’s continue building on their foundation and empowering the next generation of women leaders.
