American Samoa has a proud military tradition, with generations of Samoans serving our nation with honor. Staff from Congresswoman Uifa’atali Amata’s office recently participated in Marine Day at Quantico, gaining firsthand insight into Marine Corps readiness and the needs of service members and military families. Semper Fidelis. #MarineDay

May is AAPI Heritage Month - a time to honor the history, cultures, and contributions of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders across the United States.
For American Samoa and Pacific Islanders nationwide, this is a meaningful opportunity to celebrate our traditions, faith, family values, and the generations whose hard work and service have strengthened our Nation.

During National Police Week, I thank our law enforcement officers for their dedication and service to our communities. We rely on their professionalism, readiness, and sacrifice each day. Peace Officers Memorial Day is a poignant reminder of the sacrifice of thousands of officers and their families.

Illegal fishing hurts our people and our economy.
The FISH Act strengthens enforcement with tougher inspections, penalties, and vessel tracking.

I am saddened by the passing of Governor Lolo Letalu Matalasi Moliga. He was a strong and decisive leader, and above all a man of faith. He has a secure place in American Samoa’s history. My deepest condolences to Cynthia Moliga and the entire Moliga family.

“I am deeply saddened by the passing of my friend, Chairman LaMalfa. He was elected one term before I was, so I’ve known him throughout my time in Congress. He faithfully represented the people of his large, agricultural district of inland Northern California.

“In American Samoa, we know the power of tsunamis, and we recognize the possibility of volcanic activity in our region from seamounts.
Recently, the House passed bipartisan legislation reauthorizing the National Volcano Early Warning System through 2030.”

I’m honored to be an original cosponsor of the bipartisan bill to reauthorize the Young Fishermen’s Development Act. This effort supports training and opportunities for the next generation of fishermen, strengthens food security, and reflects the fishing traditions that sustain our island communities.
