- Excerpt: "One of the greatest joys is learning a skill and putting our talents to use. Hawaii must increase utilization of our local businesses and laborers for in-state work opportunities and enable us to be highly-effective in global commerce. The best answers to many labor issues lawmakers deliberate come from our state's excellent workforce."
- Education
- Excerpt: "I understand and appreciate the many challenges both students and educators address. It is vitally important for the well-being of our students, teachers and schools that we conduct an honest audit of our State Department of Education."
- Security
- Excerpt: "We are grateful to the brave men and women and their families of our Law Enforcement, Fire Safety and Armed Forces. They make enormous sacrifices many of us will never fully appreciate. We owe them our greatest support."

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
