Positions
LiberalConservative
Economy & Taxes

Expresses concern about federal spending growth but has supported legislation that includes both tax provisions and spending changes while calling for structural changes to control spending over time.
Healthcare
Supports extending Affordable Care Act premium tax credits to keep coverage affordable, prioritizes protecting Medicaid in his district, and emphasizes expanding access to rural health care while protecting Medicare and Social Security.

Immigration & Border
The candidate supports stronger border security measures including resuming construction of a border wall, increasing resources for Border Patrol and law enforcement, and enhanced detection technology; he emphasizes removing noncitizens who have committed crimes and tightening asylum/processes while also expressing support for legal immigration. His public statements prioritize enforcement, anti-smuggling efforts, and stopping drug flows across the southern border.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
The candidate describes himself as pro‑life and supports abortion being decided at the state level rather than by federal law. He said he would not vote to codify Roe v. Wade or for a national 15‑week federal ban, and he has said abortion should be allowed in cases of rape, incest, or when the mother’s life is at risk.
Climate & Energy
Supports U.S. energy production and 'energy independence' including oil, natural gas, coal, and nuclear; acknowledges climate change but emphasizes exporting U.S. natural gas and expanding fossil fuel development as a way to reduce higher-carbon generation abroad and protect local jobs and water resources. Expresses concern about government favoritism toward wind and solar and favors market-driven or domestic-focused energy policy over aggressive regulatory approaches.
Public Safety & Guns
The candidate is a gun owner who affirms the Second Amendment while supporting measures to prevent gun violence, including Extreme Risk/Red Flag laws with due-process protections (law-enforcement-initiated petitions, clear-and-convincing evidence, right to counsel and cross-examination).

The move sets up a high-profile Republican primary fight in Colorado’s 3rd District. On the Democratic side, Dwayne Romero has entered the primary against Alex Kelloff, with both aiming to challenge Hurd for the seat.
