Mazie Hirono: “Thank you. I would like to just do one follow-up question.”

With Hawaii being home to 40% of the country’s endangered and threatened plant species in the country, celebrating biodiversity and promoting environmental conservation is critical to uplifting our state’s history and culture.

In August, Hawaii experienced our worst natural disaster since becoming a State in 1959 and the deadliest wildfire in our country since 1918.

I believe that both of you would be able to do that.

We should be supporting our public schools, not taking resources away from them.
