supporting a robust and reliable infrastructure
I will continue to support projects that prioritize innovation, leverage public-private partnerships (such as the Gateway Project) and maintain the safety of travelers throughout the district.
Evidence
The House passed H.R. 5419, the Enhancing Administrative Reviews for Broadband Deployment Act, by unanimous voice vote. The press release says the bill would address regulatory barriers to placing communications infrastructure on federal land and help connect rural and Tribal communities to high-speed internet access.
Kean announced he secured $365,000 for a new Emergency Operations Center in Mountainside through FY2026 Community Project Funding, and said the funding will strengthen emergency response capabilities and bolster public safety across the community. The release states the project was included in the Homeland Security and Further Additional Continuing Appropriations Act of 2026, signed into law on April 30, 2026.
Kean announced FY2027 Community Project Funding submissions, saying the investments would strengthen infrastructure, support public safety, and improve quality of life in communities.
Kean's infrastructure issues page says he is committed to supporting projects that prioritize innovation, leverage public-private partnerships such as the Gateway Project, and maintain traveler safety. It also says he is working to reduce traffic problems and support solutions in national transportation policy and local transportation challenges.
Assessments
The promise is broad and phrased as support for infrastructure rather than completion of a single major project. In office, Kean can be credited with concrete federal action advancing that goal: he secured enacted FY2026 Community Project Funding for a new Emergency Operations Center in Mountainside, with the appropriation signed into law during his current term. Additional evidence shows he also moved a broadband infrastructure bill through the House and continued pursuing further infrastructure funding. Because at least one tangible infrastructure investment was delivered in law during the same term, the promise is best scored as delivered rather than merely partial.
