Rep. Ed Case, U.S. Congressman representing Hawaii’s 1st district since 2019, recently used his social media platform to highlight legislative achievements and express opinions on national issues.

On January 23, 2026, Rep. Case wrote, “I concluded another successful Appropriations Committee year with full House passage of the last four of our twelve annual federal government funding bills, including my requests for major continued federal support in areas key to Hawai’i like defense, health, education,” emphasizing the importance of these sectors for his constituency.

Two days later, on January 25, 2026, he commented on ongoing events outside his home state: “What’s happening in Minnesota and elsewhere is straight out wrong legally and morally and must stop with full accountability. We need to enforce our immigration laws, but we cannot do so by surrendering our values.”

Another post made by Rep. Case on January 25 included only a link: “https://t.co/z0bNS6yap2”, without further context provided in the tweet itself.

Rep. Ed Case has served as Hawaii’s representative in Congress since replacing Colleen Hanabusa in 2019 and previously held office in the Hawaii House of Representatives from 1994 to 2002. Born in Hilo in 1952 and currently residing in Kāneʻohe at age 70, Case holds a BA from Williams College (1975) and a JD from the University of California, Hastings (1981).
