About Michael McGuire
I am running for Congress to put people first over politics and service over self-interest. New Jersey needs a fighter, whether it is safeguarding the middle class by reducing the cost of living, enhancing public safety so people feel safe in their homes, or holding government accountable. The people of New Jersey need a voice - a voice that speaks for them.
Military service
I have had the privilege of wearing the uniform and serving our great nation twice in my career as a United States Marine, and currently in the Naval Reserve. The motto of the Marine Corps is Semper Fidelis - Always Faithful. This motto has served me well in life. Showing up for duty, doing what is right, and serving my community and country.
Public service and background
For too long, politicians have gone to Washington only to have grown rich and lined their own pockets. I am not a politician. I am a husband, father, and veteran.
Members of the U.S. House of Representatives write and vote on federal laws, including the federal budget. Each represents one district and serves a two-year term. Tax bills must start in the House, only the House can impeach federal officials, and members oversee federal agencies through their committees.
