The GOP lawmaker has missed about 50 roll call votes, and colleagues have not heard from him, Politico reports.

Rep. Tom Kean Jr. (R-N.J.) has vanished from Capitol Hill, and colleagues have not heard from the two-term congressman who lasted voted on March 5, Politico reported Wednesday.

Kean’s team told the outlet he has unspecified health issues, but even fellow Republicans in the New Jersey delegation have been unable to reach him, the outlet noted.

GOP Reps. Jeff Van Drew and Chris Smith have reached out to Kean to check on his welfare, only to be met with “radio silence,” Van Drew said. Ditto for Republicans in the New York delegation, Politico wrote.

    Kean consultant Harrison Neely told the site that Kean “will be back on a regular full schedule very soon.” Union County GOP Chair Carlos Santos said, “I don’t even know the truth myself,” yet indicated he was texting with Kean “and was told he’ll be fine.”
