Today, Congressman Tom Kean, Jr. (NJ-07) announced the launch of his 2025 Regional Satellite Office Hours across New Jersey’s 7th Congressional District. These sessions aim to provide constituents with assistance on federal casework issues.

Congressman Kean represents a diverse district comprising 95 towns across six counties, including Hunterdon and Warren, as well as parts of Somerset, Union, Morris, and Sussex counties. Since assuming office in January 2023, Kean and his team have facilitated the return of over $14.7 million to constituents by resolving more than 3,100 cases.

“Satellite Office Hours provide an opportunity for New Jerseyans across the 7th Congressional District to easily access the resources and services my office offers," stated Congressman Kean. He emphasized that his team is available to help with various federal agency services right within local communities.

Washington Township Deputy Mayor/Mayor-Elect Louann Cox expressed enthusiasm for continuing these monthly office hours at the municipal building: “This initiative ensures that our residents have direct access to vital federal resources and personalized assistance right here in their community.”

Hunterdon County Commissioner John Lanza acknowledged Congressman Kean’s efforts in expanding outreach: “My colleagues and I have heard directly from residents that the satellite office located in the county administration building on Main Street in Flemington has offered ease and convenience.”

Mountainside Mayor Paul Mirabelli highlighted collaborative successes: “Through Congressman Kean’s mobile office here in Mountainside, we have worked together to assist numerous local constituents from Union County with a variety of federal matters.”

Hopatcong Mayor Marie Galate supported the initiative: “This ongoing collaboration ensures that our citizens have direct access to federal assistance and guidance right here in Hopatcong.”

Mount Olive Mayor Joe Nicastro expressed gratitude for hosting one of these offices: “This office not only serves the residents of Mount Olive but also benefits our neighboring communities."
