Newly appointed State Representative Heather Haunani Giugni was sworn in today during the House floor session. Giugni was appointed by Governor Neil Abercrombie to fill the District 33 seat which covers Aiea, Halawa Valley, Halawa Heights, Aiea Heights, and Red Hill. Former Representative Tom Okamura, who was previously appointed to the seat in January, stepped down last month unexpectedly due to illness.
