Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D., representing North Carolina's 3rd district, recently shared updates on his activities and legislative priorities via social media. His posts reflect his commitment to education, healthcare, and epilepsy advocacy.

On February 11, 2025, Congressman Murphy welcomed representatives from Pitt Community College to Washington D.C. He discussed the resources necessary to empower students and foster success in the classroom. Murphy emphasized his dedication to ensuring that educational institutions have the tools required to educate future leaders. "This morning, I welcomed representatives from @PittCC to DC to discuss the resources needed to empower students and foster success in the classroom."

Later that day, Murphy highlighted concerns about the broader impacts of an unhealthy America beyond just healthcare. He mentioned a hearing by the Ways and Means Health Subcommittee focused on healthier options and incentives aimed at reducing economic costs associated with declining national health. "An unhealthy America doesn’t just affect our health care industry; it has costly effects on our economy."

Additionally, Congressman Murphy announced his role as co-leader in reintroducing the National Plan for Epilepsy Act. This bipartisan legislation aims to improve patient outcomes and prioritize effective treatments for epilepsy, which affects over 3.4 million Americans. Murphy expressed pride in advocating for those impacted by this condition. "It is a privilege to co-lead the re-introduction of the National Plan for Epilepsy Act."
