IMPORTANT OPPORTUNITY TO GET INVOLVED EARLY - If you are interested in helping with planning or participating in the hybrid State 2022 Convention, please go to Democratic | DPH State Convention | Hawaii (dphconvention.com) or contact your District Chair or County Chair Barbara Dalton: BarbaraDalton27@icloud.com.
Theme for the 2022 DPH State Convention:
E Kūkulu Hou Kākou
Let us Build Back Better Together
The theme is in alignment with President Biden’s ‘Build Back Better’ agenda, which is an ambitious plan to create jobs, cut taxes, and lower costs for working families.
From a Hawaiian perspective, this theme also conveys the need for all of us as Democrats to collectively build up our party, unite together and make our party stronger for the next generation.
“Kūkulu Hou” is often a term used in referring to the action of building upon a hale or traditional Hawaiian structure/house. To make a structure strong, it needs to have a firm foundation. To ensure the continued success and strength of our Democratic Party, we need to make sure that our foundation is paʻa/firm.
