SEEKING INTERNS FOR FALL 2018

My offices in Mays Landing and Washington, DC are now accepting applications for fall internships. This invaluable experience for college students allows them insight and experience into the inner-workings of the federal government. Interning in the Mays Landing office will give exposure to constituent services and district events. In Washington, interns have the opportunity to attend policy briefings, learn from legislative process and provide South Jersey visitors tours of the Capitol.

 

This experience is one that I am proud to offer young professionals from the South Jersey. Please contact our office, or visit the Congressional Intern Application, to learn more and apply. 

 

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

Rowan University’s School of Osteopathic Medicine and the Wilmington VA Medical Center have established a new residency program which will improve the health care system of our veterans. Residents have begun their rotations through South Jersey’s community-based VA outpatient clinics to learn and begin treating veterans. This is a unique opportunity to recruit and train the next generation of health care students on the complexity of caring for our veterans. 

 

LATEST NEWS

As Chairman of the House Aviation Subcommittee, I recently announced more than $2 million will be spent on improvements and expansion projects at five South Jersey airports. This federal funding from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) was awarded to ACY, Cape May County Airport, Millville Municipal Airport, Ocean City Municipal Airport and Woodbine Municipal Airport. Over the last decade I have secured tens of millions of federal dollars for projects at our airports, improving our local infrastructure that connects us to the nation’s transportation system and contributes to South Jersey’s economy. 

SOUTH JERSEY “HOT PIC”

This month the FAA Technical Center in Egg Harbor Township is celebrating its 60thAnniversary. At a ceremony with employees, I joined U.S. DOT Deputy Secretary Jeff Rosen and FAA Acting Administrator Dan Elwell in recognizing the hard work of the men and women serving to keep our nation’s aviation system the safest in the world.
