Murphy Applauds Passage of DHS Funding to Keep America Safe

March 5, 2026 Press Release Washington, D.C. — Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D., applauds the passage of FY26 Department of Homeland Security funding to keep America safe, eliminate long security lines at airports, help Western North Carolinians rebuild their lives, and counter cyber threats to the nation. "I am proud to support funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and keep the federal government open for the American people," said Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D. "DHS keeps our borders and coasts secure, our airports safe, counters foreign attacks on our nation's digital infrastructure, and coordinates the federal government's response to natural disasters, like Hurricane Helene. Democrats are putting divisive partisan politics before the country once again by refusing to support funding for this critical agency."
