Recently, I joined with the primary partners of the proposed Aviation Research & Technology Park at a press conference to discuss the next steps in the development of the project. Located on a 55 acre parcel controlled by the FAA Technical Center in Egg Harbor Township, the research park will provide an environment where advanced concepts in aviation research can be explored by engineers, computer scientists, mathematicians and air traffic controllers to advance the modernization and protection of our national airspace system and increasing airspace and airport capacity.

U.S. Rep. Frank A. LoBiondo has been a lifelong resident of Southern New Jersey and a successful small businessman who worked for 26 years at his family owned and operated trucking company. Frank is also an active participant in numerous civic and charitable efforts. Building on these accomplishments, he chose to continue his community service by entering public life.

Frank has been elected to serve the area on the county and state levels, first on the Cumberland County Board of Chosen Freeholders from 1985-87 and then in the New Jersey General Assembly representing the First Legislative District from 1988-1994. In November 1994, Frank won election as the U.S. Representative from New Jersey’s Second Congressional District, where he currently serves his constituents.

A member of the House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee, Frank LoBiondo serves as Chairman of the Subcommittee on Coast Guard & Maritime Transportation and is a member of the Subcommittee on Highways and Transit and the Subcommittee on Aviation, all of which are important to addressing New Jersey’s growing and ever-changing transportation needs. A staunch advocate for strengthening our nation’s security, Frank also serves on the House Armed Services Committee and is a champion for New Jersey’s bases and service personnel, especially on issues of military pay and benefits.

Frank is also a fierce supporter of Southern New Jersey veterans. In 2006, he announced a public-private partnership between the VA and Kessler Memorial Hospital in Hammonton to provide veterans across Southern New Jersey with local acute inpatient and outpatient care, thus minimizing the need for area veterans to commute to Wilmington, DE or Philadelphia, PA for VA-approved healthcare services. Additionally, in his continued efforts to bring increased services to area veterans, Frank secured funding for an outpatient clinic in Cape May County and a VA-handicap transport van for veterans needing extensive medical treatment at out-of-state facilities.

Frank has also maintained a strong commitment to protecting the environment, working to protect fragile wildlife and wetlands areas and fighting for projects that will protect, preserve and restore the New Jersey coastline. His work in Congress has won recognition from many groups including the Wilderness Society for his work to protect national wildlife refuges and by the League of Conservation Voters and Sierra Club for his efforts to protect the environment.

Reflecting his background in business, Congressman LoBiondo has been a fiscal conservative who has worked to restrain the federal budget from wasteful spending. Showing that fiscal restraint begins at home, Frank also returns to the U.S. Treasury the unused funds from his congressional office’s mailing account.

LoBiondo, 60, received a B.A. in Business Administration from St. Joseph’s University in Philadelphia and lives in Atlantic County with his wife Tina.

The Second Congressional District of New Jersey includes all of Atlantic, Cape May, Cumberland, and Salem counties and parts of Camden, Gloucester and Burlington counties.
