 Andrew Kim |
Third Congressional District candidate Andy Kim will be joining Norcross in welcoming AFTNJ on Friday. Kim is planning to challenge incumbent Republican Representative Tom MacArthur in November. “I never thought that I would run for Congress, but I never thought that my representative would lead the charge in taking away health care from millions of Americans,” said Kim. “2018 is going to be about all of us standing up and working together for what we believe in.” More>> |
