Tammy Murphy in 2024 NJ Senate race
On Civil Rights:
Oppression of LGBTQ community is highly offensive
The fact that the LGBTQ community has been oppressed, harassed and bullied, and that such behavior has been endorsed by those in leadership, is highly offensive to me.
It is offensive to Phil. And we will stand up for the rights of those people who need our help the most.

On Gun Control:
Owe it to our children to end the epidemic of gun violence
New Jersey First Lady Tammy Murphy has made her campaign agenda clear. She intends to defend abortions and support legislation to take guns away from Americans. "We owe it to our children and grandchildren to fight for abortion rights, end the epidemic
of gun violence, address climate change, and protect our democracy. Will you join me?" Murphy posted on Twitter.Murphy’s comments come as Democrats on the federal level are attempting to reintroduce a federal assault weapon ban, ammunition limits
and a federal firearms ID that would invalidate state firearms licenses in New Jersey.
While Tammy Murphy rails against gun violence, New Jersey, with the nation’s toughest gun laws, is among the safest states in the United States.
While the Murphys take aim at legal gun ownership, Governor Murphy has laid the framework to allow countless criminals arrested for illegal gun charges to be set free under New Jersey bail reform laws.
