New Jersey Republican Rep. Tom Kean Jr., who’s been absent from Congress since March with an unspecified medical issue, is set to return on June 30, a political consultant to the congressman said Thursday.
Return to Work
Kean, who represents a battleground district in this year’s midterms, has missed more than 100 votes and hasn’t been spotted in Washington or his district, stirring a mystery that carries potential national consequences.
“Congressman Kean is eager to return to in person work on June 30 and resume a full schedule,” said Kean political consultant Harrison Neely in a text. “He plans to be fully transparent regarding the nature of his health issue and you should expect to hear from him in person June 30th.”
Kean’s office has said he is still running for reelection and is set to face Democratic Navy veteran Rebecca Bennett in the state’s premier contest in November.
