(Honolulu, HI) – U.S. Representative Ed Case (HI-01) issued the following statement on the passing of former U.S. Representative Colleen Hanabusa: “With the passing of former U.S. Representative Colleen Hanabusa, Hawai‘i has lost one of our most talented, committed and accomplished public servants,” said U.S. Representative Ed Case, who succeeded Representative Hanabusa in 2019 as Representative of Hawaii’s First Congressional District (Honolulu). “Representative Hanabusa achieved so much throughout multiple careers, including her almost seven years in Congress, where she was a valued and effective legislator, especially in strengthening our national defense, preserving our natural resources, advancing Native Hawaiians and protecting our civil rights. “Hers was a life well lived for our Hawai‘i and country, for which I am grateful. For all who we were both honored to represent, I send my deep aloha to John and their family.” ###
