Kānaka Maoli and Pasifika leaders, conservation advocates, and scientists spent decades to establish these protected areas.
This president is willing to throw that all away for short-term gain and greed.

Under Donald Trump, prices are rising faster than paychecks.Inflation is so high that it's erasing all wage gains. Inflation: 4.2% in May for the past year Wage growth: 3.4% in May for the past year. Americans are getting squeezed financially. This isn't just "bad vibes" about the economy. There is real pain, especially for middle-class

This is corruption in plain sight.Fourteen of the 27 known corporate donors to President Trump’s White House ballroom project have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more than $50 billion during the past six months, according to a report. Read more here: wapo.st/4o9GMHL

Trump says he “loves inflation.” Sacramentans do not. My constituents are paying more for rent, utilities, and groceries because of Trump's reckless tariffs and war with Iran. But this is exactly what Trump’s economy is meant to deliver — higher costs for hard-working - Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus reposted
Yet again, Trump is refusing to answer for the complete disaster he created. He doesn’t care that Americans are paying the price for his reckless war with Iran, and neither do Republicans in Congress. - Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus reposted
What a way to wrap up Hawaiʻi on the Hill!🌺 The 10th annual Taste of Hawaiʻi was an impressive showcase of the local businesses, farmers, producers, chefs, and entrepreneurs who brought the best of our islands to Washington, D.C. Mahalo to @maziehirono, @cochawaii, our Hawaiʻi

On Kamameha Day, we honor King Kamameha's life and legacy. This Sunday, we came together to celebrate King Kamehameha's leadership and his unification of the Hawaiian islands with a beautiful lei draping ceremony here at the U.S. Capitol!
- Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus reposted10 years of amazing food, crowds, and energy at Taste of Hawaii, and this year was no different! Mahalo to everyone who could join in the fun and to everyone from Hawaii for bringing the aloha spirit (and lots of One-Ton chips!) to D.C.!
- President Trump made it his mission to dismantle the Department of Education. He fired half of its workforce. He took away funding for Minority Serving Institutions. Now, House Republicans are attempting to cut education funding by an additional $8 billion. Shameful.
- King Kamehameha was a fearless leader who united the Hawaiian Islands under the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi. Today, we celebrate his legacy, his role in shaping Hawaiʻi’s cultural heritage and the rich history of the Native Hawaiian community.

This is the HIGHEST inflation rate we've see in 3 years. Everything is more expensive: gas, plane tickets, electricity, groceries, healthcare, rent. We can't afford Trump's America any longer.Inflation is up 4.2% compared to a year ago in line with expectations - the highest since April 2023. Prices increased 0.5% compared to a month ago. Prices for energy rose 3.9% in May, energy prices accounted for over 60% of the monthly all items increase. - Good. Trump’s $100,000 fee on H-1B visas was nothing more than an anti-immigrant tax that hurt America’s innovation, competitiveness, and health care.
