Sen. George Helmy's Eventful Tenure Concludes
George Helmy, appointed to temporarily fill Bob Menendez's Senate seat, has been actively engaging in legislative work during his short tenure. In his nearly three months in office, Helmy has addressed issues like the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and children's mental health impacts from social media. Despite his brief stint, he has sponsored over 30 pieces of legislation and engaged with numerous Senate colleagues, aiming to leave a significant legislative impact. Helmy, the only Arab-American senator currently, has been praised for his proactive approach and commitment to addressing complex issues.
