Will Murphy is not a politician. He is a husband, a father, a friend, a neighbor, a teacher, and a lawyer, and like many people across our District, he just simply has had enough. Enough of a government that stabs people in the back instead of watching their backs. Enough of a government where elected officials spend decades in D.C. making themselves multimillionaires at the people’s expense. Enough of a government paralyzed by radical ideologies on both sides that have nothing to do with real people and their daily lives. And, in the wake of the George Santos scandal, he looks at the people stepping up to restore our faith in government and, sadly, just sees more of the same on both sides. He sees no one who will speak and fight for our children, for our families, for our small businesses, and for what really matters to us. Will Murphy is stepping up. He is stepping up to give people the choice they deserve on the ballot. The choice to send a real person, one of their own, to fight for real solutions to the very real problems affecting their lives.

Without a doubt, the biggest issue facing not only the good people of NY-03 but the good people across the nation is a very warranted distrust in government. Many career politicians preach ethics as their actions tell a far different story. Term limits and bans on outside income and investing for members of Congress make for great talking points on the campaign trail but talk is cheap. We are different and actually putting our money where our mouths are by pledging to serve no more than three terms for a total of six years if elected and to not receive any outside income or actively invest while serving. Elected office is not meant to be a career and, therefore, this will be the first and only office we seek. Additionally, if an elected official’s “side hustle” is more important and lucrative than serving, they should no longer be an elected official. This is a pledge none of our likely opponents on either side of the aisle will make because they are running for personal gain instead of public service. We hope to put the “service” back into “public service” so we can restore that trust and put the people back where they belong: before partisanship, political parties, and potential primary challenges. If you want to trade stocks–get a job on Wall Street. If you want to write books–become a novelist. If you want to get paid for speaking–work as a wedding emcee. If your side hustle is more important than serving–stay the hell out of Washington.
