Statement from Congressman MacArthur on Office Transition

Toms River, New Jersey—Congressman Tom MacArthur released the following statement on the transition into the 116^th Congress and office closure details:

“South Jerseyans deserve a seamless transition and my staff and I are working diligently to prepare New Jersey’s Third Congressional District’s offices for Congressman-elect Andy Kim. In accordance with House Administration Committee guidelines, my Washington, D.C. office will close on Tuesday, November 27 to prepare for incoming Members. Any constituents wanting to request U.S. Capitol tours can do so through Senators Booker or Menendez, or through the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center.

“Our Burlington and Ocean County offices will close on Friday, December 21. The district offices are not able to accept any new cases. We have notified constituents with open casework that their cases can be transferred to Senators Menendez or Booker, or can wait for Congressman-elect Kim to open his office. If you have any questions, please contact our staff at (856) 267-5182 or (732) 569-6495.  We are in the process of contacting every constituent with an open case.

“It has been a great honor to serve the people of the Third District. Debbie and I are immensely grateful to South Jerseyans for this opportunity to serve and look forward to our next chapter. After four years in Congress, and meeting several thousand hardworking South Jerseyans, I am convinced that our country’s best days are ahead of us.  Working together, there’s nothing Americans can’t do.”
