Hawaii's 1st congressional district is a congressional district in the U.S. state of Hawaii . The district is entirely on the island of Oahu , encompassing the urban areas of the City and County of Honolulu , a consolidated city-county that includes Oahu's central plains and southern shores, including the towns of Aiea , Mililani , Pearl City , Waipahu , and Waimalu . The district is smaller and more densely populated than the 2nd congressional district (which comprises the rest of the state). It is represented by Democrat Ed Case .
When Hawaii and Alaska were admitted to the Union in 1959, both new states were granted one at-large representative to Congress, pending the next United States census . In the reapportionment following the 1960 U.S. census , Hawaii gained a second U.S. representative. Instead of creating two congressional districts, the state continued to elect its representatives at large. Two representatives were first elected in 1962 , and Hawaii was first represented by two U.S. representatives on January 2, 1963, upon the convening of the 88th Congress .
The 1st congressional district was created in 1971, when Hawaii began electing its representatives from districts instead of electing at-large representatives statewide.
