We must find paths to supporting New Jersey’s most vulnerable populations and make sure organizations like the Rescue Mission of Trenton have what they”
At 23:23 UTC, Kim posted another message critical of former President Donald Trump’s handling of energy prices amid international conflict: “This is a man who couldn’t care less about the pain you’re feeling at the pump. For Trump, it’s all about how he can get richer at the expense of us getting poorer.”
Andy Kim has served as a member of Congress since 2019 after replacing Tom MacArthur. He was born in Boston in 1982 and currently resides in Moorestown. Kim holds degrees from Deep Springs College and the University of Chicago.
