Fiber internet might sound complicated, but what it really means is faster, more reliable internet our families and businesses can use to thrive. In today’s episode we talk about the fiber optic line that helps us all stay connected.

Are you a high school student—or do you know one—interested in seeing how Hawaiʻi’s government works? I’m excited to launch the Office of the Lieutenant Governor High School Internship Program! 🎉

This summer, interns will get a behind-the-scenes look at careers in public service and gain firsthand experience in civic engagement. It’s a unique opportunity to build leadership skills right here at the Capitol.

With holiday season travel underway, we want to remind travelers that the agriculture form is now fully digital on all domestic flights to Hawaiʻi — and many of our residents may be seeing it for the first time when returning home. Through #AkamaiArrival, the state is making it simpler and more efficient for travelers to complete the form, either on their phone in-flight or up to five days before flying.

Big mahalo to the Department of Transportation for also streamlining airport travel with mobile airport apps, parking availability trackers, TSA wait time screens, and TSA family lanes. They also just opened Waialua Bar & Cafe at HNL Terminal 1!

This holiday season, I had the chance to join Heroes and Helpers, an annual event where keiki are nominated by their public schools to shop with first responders for Christmas presents. 🎁

My husband, Mike, and I spent time with a very special young lady, Haven. She was so thoughtful — heading straight to the home goods aisle to pick out towels and a bath mat for her mom, and toys for her siblings, before choosing anything for herself. We were so moved by her kindness and selflessness. 💛

Mahalo to Heroes and Helpers, Catholic Charities Hawaiʻi, the first responders, and all the volunteers for making this special holiday event possible for our keiki. Moments like these truly show the aloha of our community and the impact it can have on our keiki. ...

It was such a pleasure visiting @kaiulanielementary's new #ReadyKeiki pre-K classroom right in Urban Honolulu with Senator Karl Rhoads and @hirepresentativedanielholt. It's always so special to see our youngest learners excited about school as we continue to expand early learning opportunities for families across our state.

It’s been three years since I had the honor of being sworn in as Lieutenant Governor. Every day, I’m reminded of our responsibility to our people, to the place we call home, and to the principles of aloha that guide us. There’s still so much important work ahead, and I’m grateful to continue it with all of you.

If you have comments, feedback, or ideas please reach out to my office at ltgov.hawaii.gov. Your input is always welcome — mahalo! ...

I’d like to spotlight some recent Capitol visitors! One of my favorite parts of my job is meeting people from all across Hawaiʻi and beyond — it’s a powerful reminder of community and connection. Hearing about the work people are doing across our islands, and the impact they’re making in their own communities, makes every visit meaningful and inspires the work we do each day.

East Hawaiʻi Island now has three new public preschools for our keiki and ‘ohana! 👏 I had the pleasure of visiting @keiscougars, @keaukahaelementaryschool, and @keaau.elem with Big Island legislators to see the new classrooms and meet the pre-K students and teachers.

These new classrooms will give families across East Hawaiʻi the peace of mind that their keiki have a trusted pre-K close to home or work. With #ReadyKeiki, we’re committed to preparing our youngest learners for the future and supporting the needs of families across our islands.

To learn more about free, public pre-K, visit readykeiki.org. ...

The Legislature’s quick distribution of the $50 million nonprofit grants from Act 310 underscores the vital role nonprofits play across our islands—especially in times of uncertainty. From rural healthcare to social services, child care, education, food security, and housing support, our state relies on these organizations to meet community needs that the state cannot meet alone. Organizations, including the statewide food bank system, which expanded services during the recent federal government shutdown, continually step up to ensure our communities have access to the support they need.

Our investments reflect our values, and the Act 310 grants make clear that supporting our nonprofit partners remains one of Hawaiʻi’s top priorities. I want to especially thank the Act 310 Evaluation Committee members: @senatordonovandelacruz, @hirepresentativedanielholt, @senatorkanuha, and @reptakenouchi for their diligence and commitment to our community, and mahalo to the Legislature for recognizing the impact of our nonprofits and investing in the communities they serve. ...
