Drew Murray is running for a Philadelphia City Council at-large seat. He is a Center City civic leader who became a Republican in 2018.
Murray said the top three issues facing the city are “crime, crime, and crime.”
“Everyone is feeling this crime wave all around the city,” he said. “Whether it’s people stealing from Rite Aid, or illegal ATVs going up and down the Parkway, or our murder totals are still very high.” He said while it’s challenging to “legislate yourself out of crime,” he intends to work closely with law enforcement leaders to “have culpability in this city again.” Murray,has been critical of progressive District Attorney Larry Krasner, but he vowed he’d aim to find compromise with the DA if elected to Council.
“Whether I agree with the DA or not, I need to work with him,” he said. “He wants to reduce crime. We both want the same thing, we just have vastly different ideas on how to get here. I’m not going to put all the blame on one person.”A native of Villanova, Murray has lived in Center City for nearly two decades. He lives with his wife and two teenage daughters, and he works in sales at a Conshohocken-based storage firm.
Murray said he considers himself “pro-business and pro-development.” He said he sees development as “paramount to the future of Philadelphia” and thinks the city needs to more aggressively promote business growth.
