Is Israel’s fate tied to Syria?

Syria has fallen, but we are still far from seeing the last of the hostages returned. Our brave soldiers must fight to secure Israel’s borders, rid the region of emboldened attackers all over the Middle East, and adapt to the escalating threats from Syria, but Israel doesn’t have enough supplies to properly win this war. Can you support our IDF sons and daughters as they continue fighting for the Survival of the Promised Land?.

In 2020, he also ran against Rep. Ed Case (D-Hawaii) for his House Seat, but lost with similar margins.

Hirono is a progressive who wants to represent the island majority left-wing state for a third term of six years.

The U.S. Senator from Japan is expected to win Hawaii’s next general election. Her victory will be welcomed by Democrats who are fighting to maintain their razor-thin Senate majority.

According to data on campaign finance, her 2024 campaign raised more than $3,000,000 in individual contributions. The Federal Election Commission website did not contain records of her opponent’s fundraising.

Hirono served as the lieutenant-governor of Hawaii for three terms before she was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives.

Hawaii’s congressional delega-tion, consisting of two senators and 2 members of the House, is 100% Democratic.
