Stephanie Murphy

US House Florida — 7th District Democrat
Incumbent2020
Congresswoman Stephanie Murphy is in her second term representing the Orlando area in Florida’s Seventh District. Rep. Murphy’s family fled Communist-led Vietnam six months after she was born and were rescued at sea by the United States Navy. She grew up to serve as a national security specialist in the Department of Defense and worked as an educator at Rollins College in Florida prior to being elected to Congress in 2016.

Congresswoman Murphy launched her campaign for Congress in the wake of the Pulse nightclub shooting. She took on a longtime NRA-backed Republican incumbent and defeated him by running on a strong gun safety platform. Once elected, Congresswoman Murphy immediately made securing federal funding for gun violence research a priority, and in 2019, Congress provided such funding for the first time in more than two decades. A co-chair of the Blue Dog Coalition, Congresswoman Murphy has also supported bipartisan legislation to enact universal background checks and close the boyfriend and stalker loopholes. Her constituents can count on her to continue to prioritize commonsense gun safety legislation in Congress.

We are proud to endorse Stephanie Murphy for the US House of Representatives in 2020.
