Gregory's Positions on Key Issues

Economy

High

Congressman Gregory Murphy supported the Consolidated Appropriations Act (H.R. 7148) in January 2026, noting its inclusion of community development and defense funding for his district. He also introduced the SECURE Minerals Act, aimed at supporting domestic critical mineral supply chains, stabilizing prices, and bolstering domestic production and extraction.

I have introduced several pieces of legislation that will help counter China’s threat. In January, I introduced the SE-CURE Minerals Act, which is aimed at supporting domestic critical mineral supply chains. The SECURE Minerals Act would establish a Strategic Resil-ience Reserve that would be tasked with stabilizing critical mineral prices and supporting domestic production and extraction supply. — Congressman Gregory Murphy, U.S. House of Representatives, February 24, 2026 Congressional Record

Healthcare

High

Gregory Murphy voted against H.R. 6703, the "Lower Health Care Premiums for All Americans Act," and supports President Trump's healthcare policies. He criticizes health insurance companies for prioritizing profits over patient care, stating that "greedy insurers are squeezing patients" and advocates for competition to reduce costs and lower premiums. He actively supports breaking up vertically integrated healthcare monopolies and also worked with NCDHHS to secure $213 million for NC Rural Health.

“You guys need to be broken up. The vertical integration has destroyed competition in this country and again if I had my way, I’d turn all of you guys into dust, we’d start back from scratch, we’d have competition in the industry, we’d have associated health plans, and we would have nonprofit hospitals,” Murphy said.

Climate & Energy

Medium

Gregory Murphy voted in favor of the Homeowner Energy Freedom Act and the Don’t Mess With My Home Appliances Act in 2026, indicating a position against certain energy and appliance regulations. He received a 0% score from the League of Conservation Voters in 2024, with a lifetime score of 8%, reflecting a stance divergent from environmental advocacy groups. He is also listed among representatives in the International Conservation Caucus Foundation Group publication.

Abortion & Reproductive Rights

Low

Gregory Murphy voted in favor of the Right to Contraception Act, a bill intended to protect access to contraception. He also supported the Women's Health Protection Act, which aims to protect the federal right to abortion. Additionally, Murphy backed the Ensuring Women’s Right to Reproductive Freedom Act to safeguard the right to travel for abortion care.

Foreign Policy

High

Congressman Gregory Murphy supported the Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024, which provided $60.1 billion in security assistance to Ukraine. He also opposed the Israel Security Assistance Support Act, which would have bypassed existing laws for aid to Israel, a stance positively scored by Foreign Policy for America. Murphy backed the FY26 Department of Defense appropriations package, including a 3.8% troop pay raise and $174 billion for procurement, and expressed strong opposition to Iran's nuclear ambitions, stating the U.S. cannot allow the threat of Islamic jihadi ideology to have a devastating weapon.

“Decades of appeasement of the radical, Islamic terrorist regime of Iran are over,” said Congressman Greg Murphy, “Ayatollah Khamenei and his terrorist rulers, if allowed to develop a nuclear weapon, would never hesitate to use it against Israel, the United States, or any other country. They have proven that life means nothing to them by recently killing thousands of their own people. President Trump and his administration have given Tehran every opportunity to negotiate peace, but, just like they have always done before, they have delayed and refused to cooperate to buy time to become a nuclear power. America cannot allow the cancerous threat of Islamic jihadi ideology to have such a devastating weapon to threaten the stability and security of our allies and the global community.
