Born on April 12, 1981, under the warm Hawaiian sun, Tulsi Gabbard's journey began with the gentle lapping of waves on the shores of her native land. From an early age, she harbored a fierce determination and an unwavering commitment to serving her community and her country.At the tender age of 21, she made waves of a different kind, becoming the youngest person ever elected to the Hawaii House of Representatives. Her youthful energy and passion for change resonated deeply with her constituents, propelling her into the political spotlight.But it wasn't just in the chambers of government where Gabbard made her mark. A true patriot at heart, she answered the call to serve her nation, donning the uniform of the United States Army Reserve. From the deserts of Iraq to the sands of Kuwait, she stood steadfast, serving in a field medical unit and later as an Army Military Police platoon leader.Her military service instilled in her a deep sense of duty and a profound understanding of the sacrifices made by those who serve. It was this same sense of duty that led her to seek higher office, and in 2013, she became the U.S. representative for Hawaii's 2nd congressional district.
