On December 8, 2025, Kean shared his visit to Picatinny Arsenal, stating, “ICYMI: I met with @SecArmy at Picatinny Arsenal to meet with the exceptional workforce delivering groundbreaking tech for our servicemembers.

Later that day, he addressed healthcare policy efforts in Congress. Kean wrote on December 8, 2025: “Together with 20 Democrats & 15 Republicans in the House, I introduced a health care framework to extend the enhanced ACA tax credits.

On December 9, 2025, Kean recognized a local student’s achievement: “It was a privilege to recognize Cadet Colonel Caleb Morman yesterday evening for receiving the General Carl A. Spaatz Award, the highest honor a Civil Air Patrol cadet can earn. Caleb is a student at North Hunterdon High School, where he has distinguished himself both”.
