Education Funding quality public education for students of all ages is one of the most valuable investments for the future of Hawai‘i because a well-educated population is the foundation of a thriving community. Infrastructure / Transportation I am committed to securing federal funding specifically for disaster preparedness, ensuring that our first responders, state and county governments, and community organizations have the necessary tools and resources to handle such crises. Guns My commitment to fighting for safer communities through effective and innovative gun reform legislation remains unwavering. We must take decisive action to ensure public safety and prevent further tragedies caused by gun violence. Abortion / Contraception I’m committed to ensuring that our girls do not grow up with fewer freedoms than their mothers and grandmothers had, particularly in terms of their fundamental right to make their own health decisions. Healthcare I will continue to fight for this critical legislation until equitable healthcare is a reality for all. Taxes / Budget I am committed to continuing to explore every avenue to secure federal funds that can make a real difference for families striving to thrive in Hawai‘i. Environment / Energy Aggressive action needs to be taken to address climate change impacts and increase renewable energy production. Wages / Job Benefits I also support policies like increasing the minimum wage and canceling student loan debt so that higher education is a possibility for anyone.
