Dear Friends,

Welcome to a new endeavor on the part of the Majority Caucus of the State Legislature – the Majority Caucus website.

Having grown up in sugar plantation housing in Waialua, I have a strong affinity for this side of the island. Today, I am proud to be able to represent the people of the 46th District. Thank you for allowing me to serve you.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with your concerns and ideas on ways to improve our community. I am here to listen.

Aloha,
Michael Y. Magaoay
State Representative
46th District
