Whenever you look at the family that is being very productive, that has a great family life contributing to American society, but, in fact, they came here illegally, I don't think you can excuse the illegal behavior, but you also recognize they're not terrorists, they're contributing to our society. We understand the humanitarian reasons that brought them here.
Hutchinson discusses the complexities of illegal immigration and acknowledges the contributions of immigrant families to American society.

I am running for the president of the United States because I know that the best of America is ahead of us.
I’ve said repeatedly that when it comes to January 6, and the attack on the Capitol, Donald Trump is morally responsible.
It's about policy, but it's about electability. And we do not want to have a repeat of 2020 with a Trump/Biden race. We want something different that we can win.
