The Council said of Murphy;
- Murphy currently serves as Vice President of Coastal Environmental Services, which specializes in disaster relief and environmental cleanup. In 2010, he spent six months in the Gulf of Mexico leading the company's efforts to remove oil spilled during the BP disaster. Coastal Environmental has been named one of the nation's top "Green Contractors." He is also the Co-Chair of Coastal Cares, which guides the firm's philanthropic work for local and regional charities.
- Murphy presents a clear alternative to West's hard-right policy positions, particularly on foreign policy and national security issues. He believes that while the United States must confront global threats, it is better to do so with careful diplomacy than reckless use of military force.[3]
