United States congressional delegations from Hawaii

Map of Hawaii's two congressional districts for the United States House of Representatives since 2022

Since Hawaii became a state in 1959,[1] it has sent congressional delegations to the United States Senate and United States House of Representatives. Each state elects two senators to serve for six years. Members of the House of Representatives are elected to two-year terms, one from each of Hawaii's congressional districts. Before becoming a state, the Territory of Hawaii elected a non-voting delegate at-large to Congress from 1900 to 1958.

The longest-serving senator was Daniel Inouye, from 1963 to 2012—he served as President pro tempore of the United States Senate from 2010 to 2012 as the longest-serving senator.[2] Patsy Mink was the first woman of color to serve in the House, and the first woman to represent Hawaii in Congress.
