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.

"When avoidable illness becomes fatal simply because care is too far or too expensive, the system is not in need of repair. It’s in need of a revolution." writes @tokuda.house.gov in the Revitalizing Rural America special section.

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.

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃 Honored to join The Salvation Army as they celebrate 130 years of service & selflessness on Maui. Their commitment to helping through natural disasters and moments of hardship is true aloha in action!

Grateful for our faith community, which continues to stand on the front lines for those who are scared, in need, or seeking a safe place to get help. I’m looking forward to future conversations on how we can work together to best serve and support our friends and neighbors.

Met with Mayor Alameda after the Coconut Island Bridge collapse to check in and discuss a path forward to restore the damage. Our priority is making sure repairs are safe, sturdy & done right, and we will continue exploring federal resources to support the County's work to rebuild.

On the House floor, I rose to honor the life and service of Maui County Councilmember Tasha Kama, a fierce advocate, a warm presence and a pillar of aloha. Hawaiʻi needs more Tashas. Sending love to the Kama ʻohana. May her courage, compassion, and legacy continue to guide us. Rest in aloha.

Justice was denied for decades — tonight’s vote to release the Epstein files is years overdue. Pedophiles don’t get protection.
This is a win for the brave survivors who endured unimaginable horror. Now President Trump must sign the bill immediately and release ALL the files.

Honored to speak at the Preschool Development Grant Birth-to-Five Symposium. These grants help expand access to preschool, support early educators & give every child a strong foundation. While this admin cuts early childhood funding, I will keep fighting to protect this vital resource for our keiki.

Enjoyed stopping by the Holualoa Coffee and Art Stroll to celebrate Kona’s coffee and creative community. Wonderful to see local farmers and artists sharing their work, connecting with neighbors, and keeping our traditions alive. Mahalo to everyone who made it happen!

Over 600 Native Hawaiian beneficiaries were offered 1,100 future homestead lots on Maui. This is what hope looks like. After generations on the waitlist, this is the fulfillment of Prince Kūhiō’s vision, the promise of a home & a future for our children in Hawaiʻi. Congrats!

SNAP serves children, elderly people, people with disabilities, veterans and working families. When Republicans talk about "cutting benefits," they need to say who they're choosing to go hungry.
