Hawaiʻi Candidate Endorsements
Planned Parenthood Alliance Advocates supports state and local candidates who consistently take responsible positions on reproductive health care, including abortion, birth control, and sex education. Through our endorsement process we find, educate, endorse, and support candidates who will join us in standing with Planned Parenthood, our patients, and the communities we serve as we work in pursuit of sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice for all people.

* An approved candidate is fully supportive of inclusive and accessible sexual and reproductive health but may be in a race with another candidate similarly aligned on these issues. Approved candidates are not ranked but rather indicate the support you have shown to the people who are Planned Parenthood’s patients and community members, and the issues for which we advocate.*
