Campaign themes
2014
Hudson's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[2]
MEDICAID expansion
- Excerpt: "I emphatically oppose the expansion of MEDICAID as a part of Obamacare. If you think a government healthcare program might be good, look at the current problems of the Veteran’s Administration."
Common Core
- Excerpt: "I am passionately opposed to Common Core in our schools. The bottom line is, this is a federal government takeover of our local control in the education of our children and grandchildren. The States have been lured by the almighty dollar and accepted the Common Core curriculum. Once you accept federal money, you live by federal control and dictates."
