Working with Tulsi Gabbard on the Honolulu City Council has shown me what an inspiring role model she is for women everywhere. I have confidence in her integrity and character, which shines through in the high quality of her work. When she was first elected, I was quickly impressed with her courage in setting aside her own interests to take on tough issues that typical politicians shy away from. 

I've worked with Tulsi's opponent Mufi when he was the Mayor, and his bullying tactics and “my way or the highway attitude" are the complete opposite of what I’ve experienced with Tulsi. She respectfully listens to others and always finds a way to bring people together to get the job done. I can think of no better person to serve the people of Hawaii's 2nd District in Congress than Tulsi Gabbard. 

Once you meet her, you'll know exactly what I mean.
