Congressman Kim Joins Small Business Roundtable at Joint Base, Introduces Legislation to Increase Access to Capital

Today, Congressman Kim introduced the Access Business Credit (ABC) Act to ease tax burdens for community banks to incentivize increased lending to small businesses.

Congressman Kim continues to work closely with the small business community to address their needs. On October 20th, he spoke with the Small Business Roundtable and other small business leaders at an Industry Day at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst. In conversation with local entrepreneurs, the group discussed the need to expand opportunities for small businesses through government contracts and loans.

NJ YMCA State Alliance Received Congressman Kim Congressional Champion Award

Last night, Congressman Kim was honored to be recognized as the YMCA National Congressional Champion. He was given this award earlier this year for his efforts to expand YMCA programs and extend free summer meals for kids in his Summer Meals REACH Act.

We look forward to continuing our hard work supporting all local YMCA’s provide our community.

Low Cost Over-the-Counter Hearing Aids Hit Shelves

This week, over-the-counter hearing aids became available at local drug stores, including Walmart, Walgreens, CVS, and Best Buy. In August, the Food and Drug Administration issued a rule to allow over-the-counter sales.

This is a huge step in delivering more affordable healthcare prices and delivers estimated savings of $3,000 per paid to the millions of Americans with hearing loss. Read more about where to find hearing aids here.
