Greetings,

We hope you have had a great week! To everyone who celebrated Holi at the start of the week, we hope you had a vibrant and joyous Festival of Colors. Our office enjoyed a week full of celebrating Women’s History Month and delivering our district direct resources through our webinars and resource fairs. Stay tuned for more information on those below!

As we head into the weekend, we also hope those who celebrate have a wonderful and peaceful Easter Sunday with loved ones! As always, we hope you find these updates and resources helpful.

Happy National Vietnam War Veterans Day!

Today we recognize the selfless service of our brave Vietnam War veterans. Too often without the recognition they deserve, we pay tribute to what they sacrificed for our nation and continue our work to stand by them with the support they earned.

Congressman Kim works tirelessly to have our veterans’ backs in Congress, listening to their needs and expanding their access to the benefits they deserve. We want to highlight again that starting on March 5th, thanks to the PACT Act that Congressman Kim helped pass into law, servicemembers exposed to toxins or other hazards while serving at home or abroad are eligible to apply for VA healthcare. This progress is a huge step in delivering on that promise! If you served in Vietnam, the Gulf War, Iraq, Afghanistan, or any other combat zone after 9/11, enroll in VA healthcare today at va.gov/PACT.

Congressman Kim Hosts Dedication Ceremony in Honor of Renaming the Bordentown Post Office After Clara Barton

A couple years ago, Congressman Kim introduced and passed bipartisan legislation to rename the Bordentown Post Office after Clara Barton, the founder of the American Red Cross and the first free school in New Jersey.

This week Congressman Kim held a dedication ceremony to celebrate the renaming! It was an exciting day bringing together local leaders, representatives from the American Red Cross, and the co-president of the Bordentown Historical Society and our favorite Clara Barton look-alike Bonnie Goldman. The Bordentown Historical Society does incredible work to uplift local history and preserve the Clara Barton Schoolhouse, an honored historical landmark in Bordentown!

We are so excited that Congressman Kim was able to help secure this dedication, bring people together to celebrate, and honor the legacy and service of a true trailblazer for New Jersey and our nation.

Noting National Nutrition Month with Action

During National Nutrition Month, we celebrate the power of nutritious and well-balanced meals. Congressman Kim has continued to support legislation that protects SNAP and other nutrition programs to ensure that people across the state can access good meals year-round that lead to happier, healthier lives.

Congressman Kim’s work includes introducing the bipartisan, bicameral Enhanced Cybersecurity for SNAP Act to protect SNAP benefits as well as his Summer Meals REACH Act to support local efforts to combat “summer hunger” and expand kids' access to nutritious meals on their break.

Celebrating Fourteen Years of the Affordable Care Act

For fourteen years, the Affordable Care Act has helped to lower healthcare costs for many Americans. After building on its success with the Inflation Reduction Act, we are committed to furthering its progress and protecting life-changing coverage for millions of Americans.

UPCOMING: Tax Credits and Environmental Incentives Resource Fair

On April 6th, Congressman Kim will be hosting a Tax Credits and Environmental Incentives Resource Fair at the Boys and Girls Club in Lawrenceville. There will be local nonprofits, county, state, and federal agencies at the event providing information and resources about environmentally focused tax credits and incentive programs, utility efficiency improvements, and VITA services available for eligible taxpayers.
