ICYMI: Rep. Tom Kean Jr. & Chairwoman Lisa McClain tour NJ, tout One Big Beautiful Bill

August 11, 2025

Rep. Tom Kean, Jr. and House Republican Conference Chair Lisa McClain toured Bihler of America, a family-owned manufacturer, and the Alpha Family Restaurant to highlight critical wins for workers in the One Big Beautiful Bill, which Reps. Kean and McClain helped pass.

Thanks to their efforts, 179,000 New Jersey jobs are now protected, and workers in NJ-07 and across the country no longer have to pay taxes on their tips or their overtime pay. 

Reps. Kean and McClain also prevented a 16% tax hike, quadrupled the SALT deduction, and made permanent the 20% small business deduction, helping New Jersey families and small businesses thrive.

“Thanks to Rep. Tom Kean, Jr.’s vote, the One Big Beautiful Bill became law. Now, New Jersey families will see their taxes go down and their savings go up. Rep. Kean has always put New Jersey first, and this historic pro-worker, pro-family bill is further proof.” — NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
