Care for and honoring the members of our Armed Forces

Congressman Murphy is committed to ensuring that Congress cares for and honors the men and women who serve in the Armed Forces and their families who sacrifice so much for our country. Congressman Murphy especially is concerned with protecting the benefits veterans have earned—including health care and disability—and expanding veterans' mental health resources. That is why his first act in Congress was to introduce an amendment to protect our troops and active-duty military from benefit cuts in any proposed budget resolution.

Congressman Murphy is committed to providing veteran-hiring incentives for businesses as well as training opportunities to help the members of our armed forces transfer their military skills to related occupations once they return home.
