Overview
- Murphy unveiled the American Mobilization Project on June 2 to oppose President Trump’s agenda and support groups resisting GOP policies.
- The PAC is positioned to invest over $2 million in the 2026 midterm cycle and has allocated $400,000 to Medicaid defenders and youth voter registration efforts.
- Its first grants went to Georgia Youth Justice and Project 26 Pennsylvania, along with funding for the Committee to Protect Health Care’s efforts in Louisiana, Michigan and Utah.
- Murphy argued that only widespread grassroots organizing can counter what he called Trump’s “corruption and destruction of democracy” and rejected suggestions the PAC serves a 2028 presidential campaign.
