Greetings,

We hope you have had a great week! Our New Jersey communities saw a lot of inclement weather these past few days and we know more winter storms are coming. Please remember to stay up-to-date with local resources to track and prepare for storms! As we head into the Martin Luther King Jr. long weekend, stay warm and safe!

As always, we hope you find these updates and resources helpful.

Congressman Kim Helps Secure $15,000 in Grant Funding to Expand the Promise of Literature and Storytelling Efforts

People & Stories / Gente y Cuentos use the power of storytelling to connect our community. This week, Congressman Kim announced that they were selected to receive $15,000 in grant funding from the New Jersey Council for the Humanities! We are proud to have helped to bolster their work and help create inclusive and welcoming spaces for people of all backgrounds to explore literature.

Speaking with Students in Hamilton Township!

Earlier this week, Congressman Kim had the chance to speak with local seniors at Hamilton High School West. It’s always a good day to talk about government, civics, and staying engaged! We are grateful for the students’ conversation and informed questions.

Cutting Ribbon at JBMDL Readiness Center

Our office joined the New Jersey Department of Military and Veterans Affairs for a ribbon-cutting ceremony last week at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst to officially open their new National Guard Readiness Center! It is fantastic to see our federal funding get this project started and finished! We will continue to prioritize direct investments like this that deliver for our military community and our national preparedness.

A Record 20 Million People Enrolled via HealthCare.Gov

This week, we hit a record 20 million people signed up for healthcare coverage thanks to the Affordable Care Act! We have worked to make sure families can find affordable and accessible healthcare plans on the Healthcare.gov marketplace. We will keep working to lower more everyday costs across the board.

Don’t forget that through Jan 31st in NJ, you can shop for a plan that’s right for you and sign up for healthcare coverage at GetCovered.NJ.gov!

Charging the Way to a Greener Future!

Congressman Kim helped pass the bipartisan infrastructure law to fix New Jersey’s crumbling infrastructure and help propel our state into a greener future. This week, we celebrated a $10 million investment from this law to expand our state’s electric vehicle infrastructure. More chargers means more EVs, and a step closer to a greener future for our country.
