Jarrett Keohokalole for Congress in Hawaii’s 1st District

Working people deserve leaders who will fight to lower costs, protect our democracy, and stand up to powerful interests—not politicians who put corporations and billionaires first.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Jarrett Keohokalole for Congress in Hawaii’s 1st Congressional District.

A husband, father, and State Senator, Jarrett Keohokalole is running to ensure working families can afford to build their future in the islands they call home. He is focused on tackling Hawaii’s affordability crisis and building a government that is transparent and responsive to the people.

Fighting for Working Families

Jarrett’s campaign begins with one of the biggest challenges facing Hawaii: the rising cost of living.

He’s committed to expanding affordable housing so local families can continue to live and thrive in their communities, lowering health care costs, and protecting vital programs like Social Security, Medicare, and SNAP that millions of Americans depend on. 

He also supports reversing tariffs that increase prices for working families and believes Congress should focus on making life more affordable instead of protecting corporate interests.

Defending Democracy and Government Accountability

Jarrett believes democracy works best when government is open, transparent, and accountable to the people.

He has worked to increase public access to government by expanding remote testimony and livestreaming legislative proceedings, making it easier for Hawaii residents to participate in the democratic process. 

In Congress, he is committed to protecting voting rights, strengthening democratic institutions, and pushing back against billionaire influence and political cronyism that undermine public trust.

Protecting Rights and Building Safer Communities

Jarrett is a strong supporter of reproductive freedom and believes every person deserves the ability to make their own health care decisions.

He also calls for protecting immigrant communities from unconstitutional enforcement actions while ensuring our immigration system reflects American values of fairness and due process.

For Hawaiʻi, he has made cleaning up the Red Hill fuel contamination a top priority, calling for the federal government to fully address the environmental and public health crisis affecting local families.

Pursuing Peace and Responsible Leadership

Jarrett believes America should lead through diplomacy whenever possible and that Congress must reclaim its constitutional responsibility over decisions of war and peace. His campaign calls for strengthening congressional oversight of military action and pursuing a foreign policy that prioritizes diplomacy over endless conflict.

Building Progressive Power in Hawaii

At Our Revolution, we know that meaningful change comes from electing leaders who are rooted in their communities and committed to putting people ahead of powerful special interests.

Jarrett Keohokalole is running a campaign centered on affordability, healthcare, democracy, reproductive freedom, environmental accountability, and a government that works for everyday people.

We’re proud to endorse Jarrett Keohokalole for Congress because Hawaii deserves a representative who will fight for working families, defend our democracy, and help build an economy and government that put people first.

 

When we organize, we win.
