Tom Kean Jr. returned to active House duties in late June 2026 after a four-month medical absence tied to a depression diagnosis, resuming voting and issuing multiple press releases on funding and local projects through early August. He advanced unopposed through the June Republican primary in New Jersey’s 7th District and faces no reported challenges to his continued service. These developments, combined with the absence of any resignation announcements, ethics actions, or renewed health-related withdrawals, underpin trader consensus that he is likely to complete the term ending January 3, 2027. The swing-district seat’s competitive general election context has not produced signals of an early vacancy.
