This represents 6 months of work on behalf of constituents who have contacted the office for prompt customer service when federal agencies were slow to deliver. This includes casework such as military benefits, passport services, IRS, Medicare, Social Security benefits, and more.\n\n\u201cI came to Congress to serve New Jerseyans and to help them in any way possible,\u201d said Congressman Kean, \u201cI am incredibly proud of our team who go above and beyond to help constituents. We will continue to work hard on your behalf every day.\u201d\n\nSince the office opened in January of 2023, Kean and his team have closed over 1,000 constituent cases, representing over $1,100,000.00 million dollars returned to New Jerseyans in District 7. From the beginning of Congressman Kean\u2019s term in office, Team Kean has closed close to 127 cases per month, helping constituents save money from the IRS, Social Security Administration, and other federal agencies.
