Friend,

Happy Monday and Happy Labor Day! Welcome back to another edition of our weekly Kean for Congress newsletter update.

I will keep this message short so you can get back to enjoying your holiday, whether that is resting with friends and family, spending time down the shore, or catching up on some much-needed rest and relaxation.

Last week, Tom spent much of his time traveling across the district for events and meetings. He had the opportunity to sit with business leaders and constituents, announced some big endorsements, and visited Community Project Sites in NJ07 towns which are currently going through the FY25 appropriations process. More on all this below.

Our Field Team spent their week hitting the pavement and phones ahead of the long weekend.  Our volunteers joined our field team in the final week of our summer push before we expand our operations for our critical GOTV efforts. It has been great to see their energy in our offices and in the field every day. We are so grateful for all of their hard work.

In my coming emails, I will be outlining everything you need to know about voting on or before Election Day. Vote-by-mail ballots will start to be sent out on Sept. 20th - less than 20 days away already. If you are reading this, we will need your help. Please consider signing up to volunteer using one of the many links below. Together, we will get out the voters needed to make November 2024 a great success.

Are you ready to work hard to deliver Republican victories in November, and send Tom Kean, Jr. back to Congress? To get involved, please visit our website.

Field Update

Things in the field are beginning to really ramp up. This past week, our Field Team spent time in all six counties, meeting with our fantastic county organizations and leadership, candidates, recruiting new volunteers, and launching our door knocking and phone banking efforts. Despite the long, final weekend of summer, they had the opportunity to speak with hundreds of voters excited about participating in the general election.

Over the coming weeks, we will be working closely with these candidates and organizations on vote-by-mail return efforts, GOTV door and phone efforts, and encouraging voters to participate in early voting. We will also be joined by many motivated partners from the labor organizations that have endorsed Tom - ensuring our message reaches every corner of the district.
