Infobox issue - shows "Member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Hawaii" twice
Any ideas about that? I'm not able to figure out what the problem is looking at the template but it shows "Member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Hawaii" twice.

That is correct and appropriate. Patsy Mink (who was a personal friend of mine) served 2 non-consecutive terms in the U.S. House of Representatives. The first ran from Jan. 3, 1965 to Jan. 3, 1977. She then retired in order to run for the U.S. Senate. Her second term in the U. S. House of Representatives ran from Sept. 22, 1990 until her death on Sept. 28, 2002.
