SOMERVILLE, NJ — Last night, Tom Kean Jr. voted to continue the war with Iran. Despite Trump and Kean Jr.’s campaign promise to lower costs and end forever wars, Kean Jr. has now voted three times to continue this reckless war in Iran.
“Tom Kean Jr. is too afraid to stand up to his own party, and New Jerseyans are paying the price. Last night, he voted for the third time to continue Trump’s war in Iran. 18 American servicemembers have died, thousands more remain in harm’s way, gas prices continue to soar, and diesel prices have hit a record high. I deployed to the Middle East and put my life on the line for this country. While Kean Jr. rolls over and lets this administration continue a war with no clear plan or exit strategy, I’m running to be a voice for New Jerseyans who want lower costs and no more forever wars,” said Rebecca Bennett.
Rebecca Bennett, Democratic Nominee for Congress in NJ-07, is a former U.S. Navy helicopter pilot, officer in the Air National Guard, healthcare leader, and mom of two. Rebecca served in the Navy for over a decade as a helicopter pilot and aircraft commander, flying missions all across the world, including through the Strait of Hormuz. After serving her country for over fifteen years in the military and making waves in healthcare innovation, Rebecca is running to unseat Tom Kean, Jr.
