"Aloha and mahalo for the opportunity to update the committee on key transportation and infrastructure issues and needs from my home State of Hawaii."

"We followed with the introduction of H.R. 7797, our Boosting Long-Term U.S. Engagement in the Pacific Act, otherwise titled the BLUE Pacific Act."

"I highlighted the importance of the vast Pacific Islands region and urged this committee and Congress to pursue efforts to broaden and deepen our engagement in this critical part of the world."

"Thank you for the opportunity to again testify before the committee."
