When and why did Hawaii become a state? Hawaiiâa U.S. territory since 1898âbecame the 50th state in August, 1959, following a referendum in Hawaii in which more than 93% of the voters approved the proposition that the territory should be admitted as a state. There were many Hawaiian petitions for statehood during the first half of the 20th century. These were denied or ignored. Some in the U.S. had been convinced, even at the time of Hawaiiâs annexation, that Hawaii had no natural connection to the rest of the states.
Annexation of Hawaii. Hawaii was officially annexed to the United States on the 7th of July 1898 when United States President William McKinley officially signed the Newlands Resolution. A formal ceremony was held on the steps of âIolani Palace when the Hawaiian flag was lowered and the American flag raised in its place.
