Kean Launches Salute to Service Initiative

(July 8, 2026) LEBANON BOROUGH, NJ - This weekend, Congressman Tom Kean, Jr. (NJ-07) announced the launch of his Salute to Service initiative to recognize exceptional veterans in New Jersey's 7th Congressional District and celebrate their service to our nation.

"Our veterans represent the very best of America," said Congressman Kean. "They answered the call to serve, defended our freedoms, and sacrificed on behalf of a grateful nation. Through the Salute to Service program, we will honor local veterans in our community and ensure their courage, service, and patriotism receive the recognition they have earned."

Congressman Kean invited nominations from members of local war veterans service organizations, including Disabled American Veterans, the American Legion, and Veterans of Foreign Wars. Over the next few months, Congressman Kean will be recognizing each nominee in his newsletter to constituents, as well as on his social media platforms.

To kick off the 2026 initiative, Congressman Kean recognized Michael A. DeCicco, a U.S. Army veteran of 22 years. View the social media post HERE.
