Kean Jr.’s House Absence Stretches On in Key NJ Swing District Race
Rep. Tom Kean Jr. of New Jersey has not voted in the House since March 5 due to a personal health matter and will miss another week as lawmakers return. He has now missed 68 votes, including over DHS funding issues, while campaigning for re-election in the all-important 7th District, a Democratic target in 2026. Four Democrats are competing in the primary, Kean has Trump’s endorsement and no Republican challenger yet, and his team says he will resume a full schedule soon.
