U.S. Rep. Colleen Hanabusa on Friday will debut her first television advertisement in the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate, a spot that stresses her roots growing up on the Leeward coast.
The ad shows the congresswoman driving past her family’s service station in Waianae and shopping at a local grocery.
“I was very fortunate to be born and raised in Waianae,” she says in the ad. “We didn’t have many privileges. But I learned from my parents, family and neighbors the values of Hawaii. How to work hard, and do your best with every opportunity you have. And I know with every opportunity comes obligation, to help others, to give back, to represent Hawaii well.”
Hanabusa is challenging U.S. Sen. Brian Schatz in the primary.
