ALTMAN SLAMS KEAN, JR. FOR BACKING MARJORIE TAYLOR-GREENE LED IMPEACHMENT

Altman: “Tom Kean, Jr. is choosing to focus on political stunts instead of doing the serious work of governing”

Lambertville, NJ – Sue Altman, Democratic candidate for New Jersey’s 7th Congressional District, released the following statement in reaction to Rep. Tom Kean Jr. voting for the impeachment of Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas:

“Instead of supporting the bipartisan immigration deal negotiated in the Senate, Tom Kean, Jr. and the rest of the House Republicans would rather pursue a sham impeachment trial that will be led by radicals like Marjorie Taylor Greene. Tom Kean, Jr. is focusing on political stunts instead of doing the serious work of governing, catering to the most extreme MAGA elements of his party at the expense of his own constituents. While there may still be Republicans willing to stand up to the Donald Trumps and Marjorie Taylor-Greenes of the world, Tom Kean, Jr. is clearly not one of them.”

After leading her Voorhees High School basketball team to local championships, Sue played college basketball at Columbia University and professional basketball abroad, earned two graduate degrees from Oxford University in the UK, then went on to become a teacher and successful basketball coach–leading two teams to state championships.

For the last several years, Sue has served as Executive Director of the New Jersey Working Families Alliance, a non-profit organization focused on fighting political corruption in Trenton, fighting against the waste of taxpayer dollars, and making New Jersey a better place to live for everyone.

Sue has seen firsthand that rising costs and unfair taxes–including the Trump-era SALT deduction cap–are making it harder for the people of the 7th District to raise families, own homes, and retire in their own communities. Driven by a deep commitment to keep fighting for those communities where she was raised, Sue is now taking her years of experience advocating for a fairer system that works for all New Jerseyans and is running for Congress in her home district.
