Murray Hill, Inc. is a Maryland corporation and a public relations and advertising firm that announced at the end of January, 2010 that it intends to run as a Republican for Maryland’s 8th Congressional district. The company’s announcement that it will run for office came after the U.S. Supreme Court’s landmark January, 2010 ruling in the Citizens United case that corporations have the same political and free-speech rights as U.S. citizens. The company is selling mugs and T-Shirts with the political slogan, “Corporations are people, too!”
