Rep. Tom Kean Jr., R-N.J., plans to return to Capitol Hill on June 30 after missing more than 100 votes during a nearly four-month absence from Washington.<\/p>\n

Kean\u2019s chief of staff, Dan Scharfenberger, confirmed to NBC News on Thursday the date of Kean\u2019s planned return. The New Jersey Globe first reported the news.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Kean\u2019s office previously said that the congressman\u2019s absence was due to a \u201cpersonal medical issue\u201d but has not disclosed any further details on his condition.<\/p>\n

Kean last voted in the Capitol on March 5, but his office has kept active on social media while he\u2019s stayed out of the public eye.<\/p>\n

The congressman is running for re-election and will face off with Democrat Rebecca Bennett, a former Navy helicopter pilot and healthcare executive, in November.<\/p>\n

President Donald Trump, who has endorsed the New Jersey Republican, reiterated his support for Kean with a Truth Social post on June 1.<\/p>\n

Trump wrote that Kean was \u201cworking tirelessly\u201d and has his \u201cComplete and Total Endorsement for Re-Election.\u201d<\/p>\n

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., told reporters last month that he spoke with Kean in April and downplayed the impact of his absence on Kean\u2019s re-election campaign.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s had a medical issue, and he\u2019s going to be fully transparent and disclose all that … but I don\u2019t even know the details. It\u2019s a member\u2019s personal privacy on whatever matters they\u2019re dealing with,\u201d Johnson told reporters in May. \u201cHe\u2019s going to get re-elected, and we look forward to welcoming him back here very soon.\u201d<\/p>\n

Johnson told reporters last week that he \u201cencouraged Tom to be transparent\u201d about his condition.<\/p>\n
