Stopped by Scotch Plains Day yesterday and had a great time catching up with neighbors and local vendors! I’m proud to keep fighting for policies that keep our local communities safe and more affordable. https://t.co/cCHJUI5gWq

Fire Prevention Week is a great reminder that small changes and steps in our lives can make a big difference in keeping our communities safe. Take a moment to check your smoke alarms, make a fire plan, and look for potential hazards around your home. https://t.co/jMr7oxtEqt

Rain or shine, Oktoberfest was in full swing at the Deutscher Club in Clark! 🥨 Enjoyed seeing everyone who came out and packed the pavilion for a fun afternoon. https://t.co/y7i7si4zVT

One simple question. Three chances to answer. Rebecca Bennett dodged every time. If she wants to represent you, she owes you a straight answer.

Started the morning at the Stirling Fire Company Pancake Breakfast! 🥞🚒 Great food and even better conversations. https://t.co/Ai7D7ITOCh

Walked the Somerville Street Fair in downtown with Mayor Gallagher and Rocky Ganta - a great time in Somerset County! https://t.co/ZssPT1XEZl

If @Rebecca4NJ07 cannot share a church pew with Republicans, how can she represent them in Congress? New Jersey is home to Democrats, Republicans, and Independents. Every one of them deserves a representative willing to listen—even when we disagree. https://t.co/uYtUzLXwWs

Great time at the New Providence PBA Car Show with Mayor Morgan and Councilwoman Geoffroy! 🏁 Always an awesome time checking out some great cars and catching up with local residents. https://t.co/xWGE0fL49e

ONE MONTH TO GO 🇺🇸 Lower taxes. Safer communities. Reliable roads, bridges, and transit. And government that works for YOU. I am ready to keep fighting for what makes your daily life better. Make your plan to vote: https://t.co/L0e6Ez3i8y https://t.co/EsuSxb60RQ

Every October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month is recognized as a time to focus on early detection, education, and support for those affected by breast cancer. In March, I advocated for continued robust funding for breast cancer research at the Department of Defense to continue their mission to end breast cancer for service members, veterans, and all individuals. This month, we unite to advocate for these causes, spread awareness, and highlight ongoing efforts to improve care and strengthen research initiatives.

You do not get to choose your constituents based on how they vote. Republicans, Democrats, and Independents all call New Jersey home. I work for ALL of them. Rebecca Bennett would not.

Access to fentanyl testing kits and opioid reversal agents is essential to prevent overdoses and deaths. It is essential that we get first responders the tools they need to combat this deadly epidemic. I am pleased to work with Representatives Van Drew, Garbarino, and Lawler to introduce this legislation to take steps towards safeguarding communities from the devastating impact of fentanyl. I will always fight to get our law enforcement officers the tools they need to keep our communities safe.

251 Cannon House Office Building, Washington, DC 20515 Email Me (202) 225-5361 Subscribe How Can I Help? (OCTOBER 1, 2026) WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Tom Kean, Jr. (NJ-07), Congressman Jeff Van Drew (NJ-02), Congressman Andrew Garbarino (NY-02), and Congressman Mike Lawler (NY-17) introduced the Fight Against Fentanyl Act, a bill to permit the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) to be used for the purchase of fentanyl testing kits and opioid reversal agents by law enforcement agencies. The Byrne JAG grant program is the leading source of federal funding to state and local police jurisdictions. The Fight Against Fentanyl Act would amend the Byrne JAG program to allow for state and local police agencies to purchase fentanyl test kits and opioid reversal agents using federal funds. “Access to fentanyl testing kits and opioid reversal agents is essential to prevent overdoses and deaths,” said Congressman Kean. “It is essential that we get first responders the tools they need to combat this deadly epidemic. I am pleased to work with Representatives Van Drew, Garbarino, and Lawler to introduce this legislation to take steps towards safeguarding communities from the devastating impact of fentanyl.” "Fentanyl is different from anything we have dealt with before because such a small amount can be deadly,” said Congressman Van Drew. “We have to attack this problem from every direction. The Fight Against Fentanyl Act is one piece of that by helping local law enforcement use existing federal grant dollars for fentanyl testing kits and overdose reversal drugs. If there is something we can put in the hands of our police officers that can help catch fentanyl or save somebody’s life, they should have it.” “Fentanyl continues to devastate families and communities on Long Island and across the country. I’m proud to join Congressman Kean in leading the Fight Against Fentanyl Act to ensure law enforcement has access to the tools they need to combat this deadly drug and save lives,” said Congressman Garbarino. “Substance use disorder and fentanyl are destroying families across the country, and we must work together at every level to combat this crisis. This legislation gives law enforcement the resources they need by allowing Byrne JAG grants to fund fentanyl testing kits and lifesaving opioid reversal agents that can mean the difference between life and death. I was proud to support this legislation last Congress, and I will continue working to give our communities the tools they need to fight back,” said Congressman Lawler. Congressman Kean has been a leader in the fight against fentanyl. Earlier this year, he introduced the American Cooperation with Our Neighbors Act with Congressman Greg Stanton (AZ-04) that would direct the State Department to create a strategy for cooperation between the United States and Mexico to stop illicit fentanyl trafficking. Watch Congressman Kean speak in support of the American Cooperation with Our Neighbors Act HERE. In January 2025, Congressman Kean voted in favor of the HALT Fentanyl Act, which was signed into law later that year to reclassify fentanyl-related substances as a Schedule I drug under the Controlled Substances Act. Since taking office, Congressman Tom Kean, Jr. has secured nearly $22 million for law enforcement across New Jersey’s Seventh Congressional District through the Community Project Funding process, demonstrating a consistent, tangible commitment to backing the blue with real resources.

Thank you, @MikeJohnson, for your support and for joining us in NJ-07. I will keep delivering common-sense solutions that lower taxes, protect our communities, and put New Jersey and America first. 🇺🇸

251 Cannon House Office Building, Washington, DC 20515 Email Me (202) 225-5361 Subscribe How Can I Help? (SEPTEMBER 30, 2026) WASHINGTON, D.C. – Earlier this week, Congressman Tom Kean, Jr. (NJ-07) introduced the Helping Encourage Lawful Payments and Strengthen Transparency, Anti-fraud, Tips, and Enforcement Strategies Act (HELP STATES) Actwith a group of colleagues to provide states more money for Medicaid program integrity activities. The HELP STATES Act was introduced as part of an Energy and Commerce Committee package of 14 bills to streamline necessary data collection and availability, bolster anti-fraud enforcement infrastructure, and incentivize fraud-fighting efforts so that states and the federal government can more effectively defend taxpayer dollars and safeguard important federally funded health programs. “The HELP STATES Act gives New Jersey and other states the power to crack down on Medicaid fraud by letting them keep more of what they recover and reinvest it straight into stopping waste,” said Congressman Kean. “This means more resources, stronger oversight, and a smarter system that rewards states for protecting taxpayer dollars.” “As a nurse practitioner, I know how important Medicaid is to the patients and families who rely on it, which is why it’s crucial we protect this vital resource from fraud,” said Congresswoman Kiggans (VA-02). “The HELP STATES Act would allow states across the country to reinvest a portion of the identified fraudulent payments into stronger audits and investigations to prevent future abuse of the system. I’m proud to join Congressman Kean in supporting this commonsense legislation to hold bad actors accountable, safeguard taxpayer dollars, and preserve the integrity of our social safety net.” “Every dollar lost to fraud is a dollar that cannot be used to provide care for Americans who rely on Medicaid,” said Congressman Wittman (VA-01). “I am proud to join my colleagues in introducing the HELP STATES Act to give states a stronger incentive to identify and recover fraudulent payments while ensuring those recovered funds are reinvested in protecting the integrity of the Medicaid program. We owe it to taxpayers and Medicaid enrollees to safeguard these resources and hold those who defraud the system accountable.” Last year, Congressman Kean voted in favor of the Working Families Tax Cuts that were later signed into law to safeguard Medicaid for every intended beneficiary in New Jersey and across the country. Congressman Kean introduced the HELP STATES Act with Representatives Jen Kiggans (VA-02), Rob Wittman (VA-01), David Valadao (CA-22), Young Kim (CA-40), and Rob Bresnahan (PA-08).

Public service is a public trust. Right now, the Senate is voting on the Stop Insider Trading Act. I urge every Republican and every Democrat to vote yes today and hold every Member of Congress to the high standard the American people deserve.

The contrast couldn’t be clearer: I voted to pass the Stop Insider Trading Act to ban congressional stock trading. But today, Senate Democrats, including NJ’s delegation, blocked it. And @RebeccaForNJ07 stands right in line with them. Bennett proves time and again she never stands up for what’s right. Less transparency, more corruption - as usual, if it helps Rebecca’s bank account, she’s all in.

I was pleased to see that Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu was released by the Azerbaijani government after being detained for more than three years. In July, I sent a letter with a bipartisan group of colleagues demanding the release of Dr. Ibadoghlu so he could be reunited with his family and receive urgent medical treatment.

@RebeccaForNJ07 is hiding the full extent of the fortune she made ripping off and denying healthcare to patients, over billing taxpayers, and putting sick people through unimaginable hell at her clinics. Bennett brags about her corporate greed, and now accountability is coming back to bite. Release the Bennett Files now. https://t.co/ipcMdEAOgs

I was pleased to see this crucial progress toward completing the Gateway Tunnel Project. For years, I have fought to advance this effort, and Monday's construction milestones represent meaningful momentum. Reliable rail infrastructure is essential to New Jersey commuters and to the regional economy, and I will continue fighting to ensure this project reaches the finish line.

@RebeccaForNJ07 claims she rejects corporate influence, but the receipts tell a very different story. She accepts big money from the Democrat party machines and special interest PACs bankrolled by corporate money and radical dark-money groups. If you can’t be honest about this, you can’t be trusted to stand up for New Jerseyans in Congress.

This afternoon, @RebeccaForNJ07 bragged that this guy was helping her campaign. This evening, that same guy is under federal investigation for violating the law. You’re known by the company you keep. https://t.co/99cWoPLhNB
