华盛顿讯 —— 众议员汤姆·基恩的发言人表示，新泽西州共和党众议员汤姆·基恩将于6月30日返回国会。他自3月以来一直缺席，此次不明原因的缺席曾令国会山困惑不已。
“基恩众议员热切期待6月30日回归线下办公，恢复全部日程安排，”基恩的发言人哈里森·尼利周四对哥伦比亚广播公司新闻表示。《新泽西环球报》最先报道了他的返岗日期。
自3月5日最后一次投票以来，基恩的行踪一直未对外披露。他在4月底首次就缺席一事发表声明时，这位新泽西州共和党人称自己正在处理“个人医疗问题”。
本月早些时候，基恩表示他将在数周内返回华盛顿，届时他将透露更多关于其健康状况的细节。
“目前我专注于康复，并遵循医疗专业人士的建议，将在数周内从远程办公转为线下办公。届时我将完全公开我的病情细节，”基恩在其竞选团队6月2日发布的声明中说道。
该声明发布数小时后，新泽西州国会席位共和党初选的投票就结束了，基恩在无对手的情况下顺利获得提名。
缺席期间，他已错过超过130次投票。
众议院议长迈克·约翰逊本月早些时候对记者表示，他最近与基恩进行了交谈。约翰逊称他知晓此次健康问题，但不愿透露细节。
“他所面临的情况并不常见，但不算严重，”约翰逊说道。

GOP Rep. Tom Kean, missing from Congress for months, set to return on June 30

Washington — Republican Rep. Tom Kean Jr. of New Jersey will return to Congress on June 30, his spokesperson said, after being away since March in an unexplained absence that has confounded Capitol Hill.
“Congressman Kean is eager to return to in person work on June 30 and resume a full schedule,” Kean’s spokesperson, Harrison Neely, told CBS News on Thursday. The New Jersey Globe first reported on his return date.
Kean’s whereabouts since he last voted on March 5 have not been disclosed. When he first made a statement about the absence in late April, the New Jersey Republican said he was addressing a “personal medical issue.”
Kean said earlier this month that he would return to Washington within a matter of weeks, at which point he would provide more details about his health.
“Right now I am focused on my recovery and under the advice of healthcare professionals, I will transition from virtual work to in person work within a matter of weeks. At that time I will be completely transparent as to the nature of my medical condition,” Kean said in a June 2 statement released by his campaign.
The statement came hours before polls closed in New Jersey’s GOP primary for his seat, in which he ran unopposed.
He has missed more than 130 votes during his absence.
House Speaker Mike Johnson told reporters earlier this month that he had recently spoken with Kean. Johnson said he was aware of the health issue, but would not disclose the details.
“What he’s dealing with is not very common and not a big thing,” Johnson said.
