Friend,
Happy Tuesday! Welcome back to another edition of our weekly Kean for Congress
newsletter update!
There are only THREE WEEKS until Election Day. These last three weeks will
decide not only the future of this District, but will determine if we hold our
House Majority. The stakes couldn't be higher, and we need your help to make
sure Tom Kean, Jr. is sent back to Congress.
Thousands more vote-by-mail ballots have been returned since my last update.
The Early Voting period begins in 11 days on October 26th. Please consider
volunteering to phone bank, knock doors, or make yard signs so we can maintain
our momentum, break further ahead, and run up the score before Election Day.
Thanks to your help, we out-walked and out-called our opponent's team for the
third week in a row. Our opponent is running scared because she knows our
grassroots team is strong.
This past week, Tom was all over the district at local events, held meetings
with constituents, participated in press interviews, and on Sunday Night took
on our opponent head-to-head in the NJ07 New Jersey Globe Debate.
Our Field Team spent the week organizing volunteers and working with our local
campaign partners on the ground. In the next three weeks, we will be expanding
our Get Out The Vote (GOTV) efforts ahead of Early Voting. We hosted our usual
weekly phone banks, and increased our door-to-door canvassing goal across all
six counties. We put up some impressive numbers you can more read about below.
Anyone registered as a permanent vote-by-mail voter should have received their
ballots by now. If you have any questions, please [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>. If you recently requested a vote-by-mail ballot, it
should be arriving shortly! Please make sure to check your mailbox for your
ballot, complete it and send it back by using either a secure dropbox, the U.S.
Postal Service, or by delivering it to your county Board of Elections. You can
still request a vote-by-mail ballot if you would like until October 29th. You
can find more information on all ways to vote and participate by visiting our
Voter Resources Page <[link removed]>. Please make sure
to complete your ballot and return it before November 5th. Questions? Click
this link <[link removed]>.
Next week, we will cover everything you need to know about in-person Early
Voting, which is another great option to bank your vote early and run up the
score. Early Voting begins October 26th through November 3rd.
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

✅ Kean Visits FY25 Community Project Funding Site in Warren County ✅
This past week, Tom continued his FY25 Community Project Funding Tour in
Warren County. To address the urgent need for improvements at Warren Community
College’s Agricultural Education and Training Center, Tom has requested
$978,625 as part of this year's appropriation process. These funds would be
dedicated to upgrading the center’s facilities, enhancing its ability to
provide vocational training in agriculture and culinary studies for students.
“This funding would provide students with the necessary resources and training
in vocational agriculture and culinary studies, helping to foster skill
development and workforce readiness in these fields.”
- Congressman Tom Kean, Jr.

Tom made stops this week to Lopatcong for a candidate meet and greet,
Somerville for a Labor Launch with members of the Carpenters Union, Scotch
Plains for the Farmers Market, Phillipsburg for the Pork Roll Palooza, Alpha
for their Fall Fest, andBasking Ridge for the Dandiya festival, amongst other
stops! Did you see see him at any stops? Send any pictures to ouremail address
<mailto:[email protected]>. Tom will continue to be all across the district this
week speaking with voters and attending events.
The Field Team started the first wave of our lawn sign blitz, scheduled major
upcoming door launches, and activated new volunteers. They prepped walk lists
for local candidates, and also prepared more resources for the upcoming labor
walks we have. This past week, 60+ union members joined us to canvass all of
Somerville in one morning. Their energy to get Tom re-elected was fantastic,
are we are so proud to stand with labor on the campaign trail. If you or anyone
you know is interested in stepping up to assist, please use the volunteer sign
up link below to join the team.
Our door knocking program covered towns like Flemington, Raritan Township,
Readington, Clinton Town, West Amwell, Tewksbury, Alexandria, Mount Olive, Long
Hill, Berkeley Heights, Scotch Plains, Rahway, Springfield, Phillipsburg,
Alpha, Pohatcong, Washington Borough, Washington Township, Oxford, Sparta,
Byram, Ogdensburg, Hopatcong, and Branchburg, Somerville, Bernardsville (just
to name a few!). Hands down, this was our best week of voter contact since the
primary, with thousands of doors knocked.
We have a number of scheduled launches in the coming weeks, including with our
partners in labor. We hope to see you there. Our weekly door goal is once again
increasing significantly next week, and we must make sure we are doing
everything we can to reach the voters we need to.Don't forget to click our
sign-up link if you would like to join our door efforts in the coming weeks.

Kean for Congress continued our phone banking efforts with five organized
phone banks this week - Union, Hunterdon, Warren and Somerset. This week we
were able to call over 16,500 voters across all six counties. We spent much of
the time chasing outstanding vote-by-mail ballots to be returned. We also sent
out another90,000+ text messages. Our plan and efforts are working, as the AP
reported that Republicans are returning their ballots at a higher level than in
both 2020 and 2022 to this point.
We now have a minimum of three to four phone banks a week that you can join
from now until Election Day! Our county organizations launched their
vote-by-mail chase efforts on phones this week. We will continue our texting
banks - an easy way to get involved - to continue to put up points on the board.

texting banking efforts in the coming weeks.

🚨 Opponent Exposed! 🚨
This week, the NRCC reported <[link removed]>
they acquired a copy of the2020 New Jersey Working Families Party Federal
Candidate Questionnaire
<[link removed]>
. The questionnaire - written by Altman - was her baseline radical 'wish-list'
for candidates to adhere to when running for office. Some of these policies are
insane. You need to check this out.

Tom Kean Jr. is the proud husband to Rhonda, and the proud father to two
daughters. Their family resides in the wonderful town of Westfield, New Jersey.
Tom’s dedication and commitment to public service was inspired at a young age
by his grandfather who served in the U.S. House of Representatives, and his
father who served as Governor of New Jersey.
Throughout Tom’s life, he has followed in their footsteps while setting forth
his own path of public service—now serving as a first-termCongressman for New
Jersey’s 7th District.
Kean's mission is simple:
For New Jersey.
For America.
For All Of Us.
Last cycle, NJ-07 was one of the KEY districts responsible for flipping the
House from Democrat Rule. This November, you can bet the Radical Left will be
gunning for Kean in their efforts to take back Congress.Would you please
consider chipping in today ($5, $10, $15, or any amount you can spare) to help
Tom counter the attacks that WILL be headed his way?

Thanks to your help, we out-walked and out-called our opponent's team for the
third week in a row. Our opponent is running scared because she knows our
grassroots team is strong.
This past week, Tom was all over the district at local events, held meetings
with constituents, participated in press interviews, and on Sunday Night took
on our opponent head-to-head in the NJ07 New Jersey Globe Debate.
Our Field Team spent the week organizing volunteers and working with our local
campaign partners on the ground. In the next three weeks, we will be expanding
our Get Out The Vote (GOTV) efforts ahead of Early Voting. We hosted our usual
weekly phone banks, and increased our door-to-door canvassing goal across all
six counties. We put up some impressive numbers you can more read about below.
Anyone registered as a permanent vote-by-mail voter should have received their
ballots by now. If you have any questions, please [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>. If you recently requested a vote-by-mail ballot, it
should be arriving shortly! Please make sure to check your mailbox for your
ballot, complete it and send it back by using either a secure dropbox, the U.S.
Postal Service, or by delivering it to your county Board of Elections. You can
still request a vote-by-mail ballot if you would like until October 29th. You
can find more information on all ways to vote and participate by visiting our
Voter Resources Page <[link removed]>. Please make sure
to complete your ballot and return it before November 5th. Questions? Click

Next week, we will cover everything you need to know about in-person Early
Voting, which is another great option to bank your vote early and run up the
score. Early Voting begins October 26th through November 3rd.

✅ Kean Visits FY25 Community Project Funding Site in Warren County ✅
This past week, Tom continued his FY25 Community Project Funding Tour in
Warren County. To address the urgent need for improvements at Warren Community
College’s Agricultural Education and Training Center, Tom has requested
$978,625 as part of this year's appropriation process. These funds would be
dedicated to upgrading the center’s facilities, enhancing its ability to
provide vocational training in agriculture and culinary studies for students.
“This funding would provide students with the necessary resources and training
in vocational agriculture and culinary studies, helping to foster skill
development and workforce readiness in these fields.”

for local candidates, and also prepared more resources for the upcoming labor
walks we have. This past week, 60+ union members joined us to canvass all of
Somerville in one morning. Their energy to get Tom re-elected was fantastic,
are we are so proud to stand with labor on the campaign trail. If you or anyone

Alpha, Pohatcong, Washington Borough, Washington Township, Oxford, Sparta,

to name a few!). Hands down, this was our best week of voter contact since the
primary, with thousands of doors knocked.
We have a number of scheduled launches in the coming weeks, including with our
partners in labor. We hope to see you there. Our weekly door goal is once again
increasing significantly next week, and we must make sure we are doing

Kean for Congress continued our phone banking efforts with five organized
phone banks this week - Union, Hunterdon, Warren and Somerset. This week we
were able to call over 16,500 voters across all six counties. We spent much of
the time chasing outstanding vote-by-mail ballots to be returned. We also sent
out another90,000+ text messages. Our plan and efforts are working, as the AP
reported that Republicans are returning their ballots at a higher level than in
both 2020 and 2022 to this point.
We now have a minimum of three to four phone banks a week that you can join
from now until Election Day! Our county organizations launched their
vote-by-mail chase efforts on phones this week. We will continue our texting
banks - an easy way to get involved - to continue to put up points on the board.

texting banking efforts in the coming weeks.

🚨 Opponent Exposed! 🚨
This week, the NRCC reported <[link removed]>
they acquired a copy of the2020 New Jersey Working Families Party Federal
Candidate Questionnaire
<[link removed]>
. The questionnaire - written by Altman - was her baseline radical 'wish-list'
for candidates to adhere to when running for office. Some of these policies are
insane. You need to check this out.

Tom Kean Jr. is the proud husband to Rhonda, and the proud father to two
daughters. Their family resides in the wonderful town of Westfield, New Jersey.
Tom’s dedication and commitment to public service was inspired at a young age
by his grandfather who served in the U.S. House of Representatives, and his
father who served as Governor of New Jersey.
Throughout Tom’s life, he has followed in their footsteps while setting forth
his own path of public service—now serving as a first-termCongressman for New
Jersey’s 7th District.
Kean's mission is simple:
For New Jersey.
For America.
For All Of Us.
Last cycle, NJ-07 was one of the KEY districts responsible for flipping the
House from Democrat Rule. This November, you can bet the Radical Left will be
gunning for Kean in their efforts to take back Congress.Would you please
consider chipping in today ($5, $10, $15, or any amount you can spare) to help
Tom counter the attacks that WILL be headed his way?
