WELCOME TO THE HIPHI
Your voice is needed.
Sign up to receive updates and opportunities to take action from HIPHI! You will generally receive a larger number of emails from us during the legislative session where submission of personal testimony is critical to getting bills passed. This is usually between January and May of each year.
Otherwise, we try and email no more than 2-3 times per month and only when necessary. We’re glad you’re with us!

Thousands of fruit and candy-flavored vaping e-liquids that are addicting our keiki would be off the market in Hawai‘i, including menthol cigarettes, flavored smokeless tobacco, and flavored cigars. Menthol and other flavors are used to mask the harshness of tobacco, making it easy for people to start smoking and become addicted to nicotine. This campaign is working to pass legislation in 2019 to end the sale the sale and distribution of all flavored tobacco and vaping liquids, including menthol.
Without SNAP incentives, thousands of families would not be able to afford fruits and vegetables for their kids. The Double Bucks legislation would double the purchasing power of low-income residents when they purchase fresh fruits and vegetables, freeing up income for other basic needs, such as housing, medical bills, and transportation.
Every penny you give stays right here in Hawai‘i and is used to advance our work to make Hawai‘i the healthiest state in the nation.
