Hurd joins what is already a crowded primary field that includes Trump and well-known figures such as Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former Vice President Mike...
“You can’t be afraid of Donald Trump,” Hurd said. “Too many of these candidates in this race are afraid of Donald Trump, but we also have to articulate a different vision.”
Hurd said he would not pardon Trump if elected and that it’s “insane” anyone would talk about doing so now.When Hurd announced in 2019 he would not seek a fourth term, he was the only Black Republican in the House.Elected repeatedly by the voters of an intensely competitive district, Hurd had emerged as a prominent bipartisan voice on Capitol Hill.
Hurd said one way to address the situation is to streamline legal immigration pathways such as guest worker programs. He said that can be accomplished through executive actions rather than waiting on Congress to move on the issue.
