About Senator Terrence Murphy of New York's 40th District
As a career small business owner, Dr. Terrence Murphy is in the business of helping people. He’s dedicated his life to public service since his family moved from Yonkers to Yorktown in 1962, when Yorktown’s mascot, the Cornhusker, was still a common and public sight.
Elected to the State Senate in 2014, Dr. Murphy has brought common sense and Hudson Valley values to State government. He created the bipartisan alliance that defeated the Coast Guard’s proposal to turn the Hudson River into a parking lot for oil barges. A prolific author of legislation, our Senator has tackled the heroin crisis, delivered millions in funding for clean water and infrastructure and has authored and passed landmark legislation to protect our seniors, veterans and the environment, including:
Authoring 46 pieces of legislation that passed both houses, the most of any Senator in his class;
Recognizing Vietnam Veterans of America as a benevolent order to provide parity with other veterans organizations and increase services for veterans; READ MORE
