Murt (born 1960) is a Republican member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, representing the 152nd legislative district. He was first elected in 2006.[2][3] Tom Murt is a native of Hatboro, Pennsylvania and graduated from Archbishop Wood High School.[4] He has a bachelor's degree in Economics from Penn State University and a master's degree in Education from La Salle University.[4] He also earned a Teaching Certificate from Gwynedd-Mercy College.[4] He has completed graduate economics coursework at Temple University, and is currently pursuing a doctorate in education there.[4] Murt served in the U.S. Army Reserve from 1990 to 2008.[8] In 2003, he was called to active duty and served for 14 months with the U.S. Army's 4th Infantry Division in Iraq.[8] Following his deployment in Operation: Iraqi Freedom, Murt returned to the U.S. Army Reserve with the 656th Area Support Group.[5] Prior to elected office, he was assistant coordinator for the Counseling and Advising Center at Penn State Abington, where he also taught business classes.[6] Murt was elected to the Upper Moreland Township Board of Commissioners in 1993 and served for ten years but resigned after he was called to active duty in the Army.[6] He also served on the board of the Upper Moreland School District.[4] In 2006, Tom Murt ran for the Pennsylvania State House against incumbent Sue Cornell in the Republican primary. He benefited from voter anger over the 2005 legislative pay raise. Even though Cornell won the party endorsement and had support from other State Representatives Murt prevailed in the primary with 55% of the vote.[7][8] Murt went on to defeat Democrat Michael Paston in the general election with 54% of the vote.[3] Before Murt was up for re-election in November 2016, he proposed a bill that would set the standards of drinking water in Pennsylvania, which would especially affect Bucks and Montgomery counties. The bill is an amendment to the 1984 state Safe Drinking Water Act.[9] In the 2016 Pennsylvania House of Representative elections, Tom Murt was re-elected to his seat after defeating Democratic nominee Albert J. DerMovsesian, Sr.[10] Murt won his 2016 re-election with 64.22% of the vote.[11] In April 2019, Murt was highlighted as having introduced or supported more "model legislation", which is written by corporations or special interest groups such as the American Legislative Exchange Council, than any other state legislator in the United States.[12] References1. ^{{cite web | title = SESSION OF 2007 191ST OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY No. 1 | work = LEGISLATIVE JOURNAL | publisher = Pennsylvania House of Representatives | date = 2007-01-02 | url = http://www.legis.state.pa.us/WU01/LI/HJ/2007/0/20070102.PDF | accessdate =2009-01-09}} 2. ^http://www.house.state.pa.us/BMC/Bios/PDF/1124.PDF 3. ^1 {{cite web| title = 2006 General Election - Representative in the General Assembly| work = Commonwealth of PA - Elections Information| publisher = Pennsylvania Department of State| year = 2004| url = http://www.electionreturns.state.pa.us/ElectionsInformation.aspx?FunctionID=13&ElectionID=24&OfficeID=13| accessdate = 2009-01-09| deadurl = yes| archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20081127151803/http://www.electionreturns.state.pa.us/ElectionsInformation.aspx?FunctionID=13&ElectionID=24&OfficeID=13| archivedate = 2008-11-27| df = }} 4. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web | title = Representative Thomas P.
