Andrew Kim (born July 12, 1982) is an American politician and former diplomat who is the U.S. representative from New Jersey's 3rd congressional district. The district encompasses Philadelphia's eastern suburbs along southern and central New Jersey. A member of the Democratic Party, he has held the seat since 2019. Kim is the first Democratic member of Congress of Korean descent and the second overall after Republican Jay Kim (no relation).[1]

In 2023, Kim announced his candidacy in the 2024 United States Senate election in New Jersey.[2]

Early life and career

Kim was born on July 12, 1982, in Boston[3] to Korean immigrant parents. He was raised in the Marlton section of Evesham Township, New Jersey, and attended Rice Elementary School[4][5] before moving to Cherry Hill and graduating from Cherry Hill High School East in 2000.[6] After two years at Deep Springs College, Kim transferred to the University of Chicago, where he graduated Phi Beta Kappa in 2004 with a degree in political science.[7][8]

During college, Kim was an intern at the United States Agency for International Development.[8] He later received a Rhodes Scholarship and a Harry S. Truman Scholarship to study international relations at Magdalen College, Oxford.[7] At Oxford, Kim became friends with fellow Rhodes Scholar Pete Buttigieg, now the U.S. Secretary of Transportation.[9]

Kim worked at the U.S. State Department. He served in Afghanistan as a civilian adviser to Generals David Petraeus and John R. Allen before working as a national security adviser under President Barack Obama.[1] Kim served as a United States National Security Council official.[10]

U.S. House of Representatives

Elections

2018

A resident of Bordentown Township, New Jersey,[11] Kim ran against two-term incumbent Republican Tom MacArthur in the 2018 United States House of Representatives election after advancing from the June Democratic primary.

Kim was endorsed by Barack Obama,[12] former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden,[13] New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy,[14] and actress Piper Perabo.[15] Kim said he was inspired to run in reaction to MacArthur's efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act.[16]

During the campaign, MacArthur sought to portray Kim as a D.C. elitist and outsider. In an ad run by the New Jersey Republican Party, Kim was described as "Real Fishy" in Wonton font on a picture of dead fish. The ad was criticized for its racial undertones.[1]

The race was considered too close to call on election night, but the next night, an influx of absentee ballots in Burlington County, home to the majority of the district's voters, gave Kim a 2,500-vote lead, prompting him to declare victory.[17] MacArthur conceded eight days later.[18] With a margin of victory of fewer than 4,000 votes, or slightly over 1% of votes cast, this was New Jersey's closest congressional race.[19][20] Kim became the first Asian American U.S. representative from New Jersey.[21]

2020

Kim ran for reelection in 2020. In the general election, he faced Republican nominee David Richter, a businessman. Richter originally planned to run against then-Democrat Jeff Van Drew in the second district, but after Van Drew switched parties, Richter decided to run against Kim in the third district.[22] Although the race was projected to be close, Kim won by 53% to 45%,[23] even though the district again voted for Donald Trump.[21]

2022

After redistricting, Kim's district became considerably more Democratic: Joe Biden would have won the reconfigured district by 14.1 percentage points in 2020, and Phil Murphy would have won it by 1.6 percentage points in 2021.[24] Kim won by a margin of 11.8 percentage points (55.4 to 43.6), defeating the Republican candidate, yacht manufacturer Robert Healey, Jr.[25]

Tenure

Kim's first official action during his tenure was to vote for Nancy Pelosi as United States Speaker of the House, but he voted against her nomination during a November 2018 Democratic caucus meeting.[26] He cited the need to reopen the government amid the ongoing government shutdown for his decision to back Pelosi.[27]

In February 2019, Kim introduced his first bill, the Strengthening Health Care and Lowering Prescription Drug Costs Act (SAVE Act).[28] In May, the SAVE Act passed the House, 234–183. The bill, designed to lower prescription drug costs and included a provision to prohibit brands from stopping generic versions of drugs from being sold on the market, was not expected to pass the Senate.[29]

Kim as part of Congressional delegation to Taiwan in August 2022.

In June 2019, Kim co-sponsored an amendment to stop a pay raise for members of Congress.[30]

In April 2020, House leadership appointed Kim to the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus crisis.[31]

Kim voted with President Joe Biden's stated position 100% of the time in the 117th Congress, according to a FiveThirtyEight analysis. This results in a Biden Plus/Minus score of +45 indicating significantly higher support for Biden's priorities than would be expected given the makeup of his district.[32]

Policing

In 2020, Kim co-sponsored and voted for the Justice in Policing Act.[33]

Ban on insider trading in congress

Kim supports banning members of Congress from trading stock, saying in December 2021 that he "disagree[d] strongly" with speaker Nancy Pelosi, who defended the practice.[34]

2020 presidential election

On January 7, 2021, after voting to certify the 2020 presidential election, Kim gained widespread media attention for a photograph of him cleaning up personal belongings left behind after the January 6 United States Capitol attack.[21][35][36][37] He donated the blue suit he wore in the photo to the Smithsonian Institution, which was collecting items from the riot.[38]

2024 U.S. Senate election

Kim in February 2024.

On September 23, 2023, Kim announced that he would mount a primary challenge to incumbent Democratic senator Bob Menendez in the 2024 Senate election, shortly after Menendez was indicted on federal corruption charges.[42][43] Kim was the first major Democratic to challenge Menendez. He said he felt disappointed by the corruption charges, and that he sought to restore integrity in politics.[44] Kim was soon challenged by New Jersey First Lady and former Goldman Sachs analyst Tammy Murphy, the wife of incumbent Governor Phil Murphy.[45] Her candidacy was accused of being nepotistic, with some papers describing Kim as an "underdog" taking on the "New Jersey political machine".[46][47][48][49][50]

Early on in the race he picked up some endorsements, most notably from Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, various U.S. Representatives such as Brendan Boyle and Grace Meng (from Pennsylvania and New York respectively), along with various local party chapters, mayors and some unions.[51][52] Additionally, he was endorsed by former National Security Advisor Susan Rice and former New Jersey Congressman Tom Malinowski; both had worked with Kim during his time at the State Department.[53][54] When Kim was endorsed by the College Democrats of New Jersey, they were reportedly pressured to endorse Murphy instead. Kim criticized these efforts, stating "We seek fairness in our democracy and must not deviate when it advantages us."[55] He later accused "party elites" of trying to "put their thumb on the scale" in the election.[56] The National Organization for Women (NOW) endorsed Kim over Murphy in late February.[57]

After Murphy declined to participate in what would have been the first primary debate, Kim discussed his candidacy and platform alone with the New Jersey Globe on February 4.[58] The two debated on February 18, in a live streamed event again hosted by the New Jersey Globe.[59][60] Polls conducted since October have shown Kim maintaining a lead over Murphy with a plurality of support. On February 10, Kim secured New Jersey's Monmouth County Democratic Party nomination, the first in the state, having won the county convention with 265 votes to 181 for Murphy.[61][62] The result was seen as an upset, as it was Murphy's home county, and various county officials had already endorsed her.[63] Kim later won the endorsement of his home county of Burlington in February 24 with 90% of the vote.[64][65]

Political positions

Kim supports providing aid to the Ukrainian military amidst the Russian invasion of Ukraine that has been ongoing since February 2022.[66] Kim referred to the death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny as a murder.[67] He called the 2023 Camp David Principles between the US, Japan, and South Korea ‘historic’.[68]

When Roe vs. Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court in 2022, Kim said he was “outraged” by the decision, referring to it as an “injustice”.[69] In late December 2022, Kim voted to enshrine interracial and same-sex marriage protections into federal law.[70]

He said the Supreme’s Court’s 2010 decision in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission “significantly damaged democracy”, and supports overturning it.[71]

Kim supports investing in clean energy and electrifying transit systems.[72]

He supports universal background checks as a way of preventing gun violence,[73] and has an "F" grade from the NRA Political Victory Fund.[74][75][76]

Personal life

Kim married Kammy Lai, a tax attorney, in 2012.[77][78] They have two sons, one born in 2015 and the other born in 2017.[79][80] His family lives down the street from his childhood home in Moorestown, South Jersey.[81] Kim is a Presbyterian.[82] One of Kim's passions is making bagels, and has said that were he not a politician, he would have started his own bagel shop. He taught bagel making classes over Zoom in April 2021 in an effort to raise money for his 2022 re-election campaign.[83][84] Kim also plays the guitar, owning at least three.[85]
