Republicans are currently divided over the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that cleared the House chamber last month. When asked whether he would vote for the measure if he were in the U.S. Senate now, Hudson indicated that, based on what he knows about it, he would support passage in order to avoid tax rate increases due to the expiration of the "Trump tax cuts."
Fox News Digital also asked Hudson about his positions on U.S. aid to Ukraine and Israel, and whether he believes America should remain in NATO.
"I'm not for any new unnecessary wars," he said, after noting that he has gone to war for the U.S., lost friends and shot people on America's behalf. "I am for whatever is gonna increase national security," he said, noting that "if that means positively supportin' some of our allies, absolutely."

"Really glad to see men like Jared jumping into one of the toughest fights on earth. I served with Jared at Team 3. He is a very good man, who loves the Lord and his family," Crane noted in a post on X.
Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall, a Republican, has also thrown his hat into the ring in the U.S. Senate race.
The state's gubernatorial and U.S. Senate contests will take place in 2026.
