“The Chamber of Commerce Hawaii is proud to partner with Senator Hirono and her team on our milestone fifth anniversary of Hawaii on the Hill,” Chamber of Commerce Hawaii President & CEO Sherry Menor-McNamara said. “We’re so grateful that our partners on The Valley Isle, including the Maui Chamber and its members, as well as Maui County, have supported this initiative every year and, along with our partners statewide, have done a fabulous job of showcasing our state’s pride, cuisine, culture and customs, industries and ideas on Capitol Hill.”
