WASHINGTON \u2014 Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear\u2019s faith calls him to address hunger, health access and community care, he said during an event Thursday at the progressive Center for American Progress that previewed a potential campaign in the 2028 cycle.<\/p>\n

The Trump administration has \u201chijacked\u201d faith, the Democrat said, leading to harm instead of helping people. He pointed to the repercussions of the major tax cuts and spending package Republicans passed last year that paid for tax cuts by making changes to food assistance and health care that will result in millions of people losing access to those safety nets.<\/p>\n

\u201cAre we using faith to help people or to hurt people?\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s that simple.\u201d<\/p>\n

More than 100,000 people are expected to be kicked off SNAP and 25 rural hospitals are at risk of closing in Kentucky alone, he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe reason why I talk about faith is it motivates me. (It\u2019s) why I\u2019m willing to get up no matter how mean and cruel the world has gotten and fight to make it just a little bit better,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Upcoming White House bid?<\/h4>\n

Beshear, 48, is widely expected to make a presidential run in 2028, and did not rule out a bid when members of the audience asked how he would govern if he won the presidency.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Like previous presidential hopefuls, he\u2019s gearing up for\u00a0a book tour<\/a>. He told the think tank his upcoming book explores how his Christian faith has led him through challenging times as governor, from the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic to deadly tornadoes, and how he believes those values can heal the deep polarization of the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the end, where we\u2019ve got to go is \u2026 I hope that you would say that you are an American long before you\u2019d say you are a Democrat or Republican,\u201d Beshear said.<\/p>\n

Beshear was a top candidate for 2024 Democratic nominee Kamala Harris\u2019 running mate before she selected Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.<\/p>\n

Immigration<\/h4>\n

An audience member asked Beshear how he would address immigration if he were president. The issue has dominated political discourse since the deadly shootings of two U.S. citizens by federal immigration agents in Minneapolis last month.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Beshear said that every federal immigration officer needs to be retrained, and he expressed concerns about what he called constitutional violations, such as agents entering private residences without a judicial warrant.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we see with (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) is an out-of-control law enforcement agency,\u201d he said. \u201cThey are so overly aggressive compared to any other law enforcement group in the nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said enforcement operations like the one in Minneapolis \u201cwill continue in other places if the current leadership continues and if they are not fully retrained.\u201d<\/p>\n

Beshear said the country needs comprehensive immigration reform that addresses long-term undocumented immigrants in the country and also provides a steady workforce.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI think that there is a reasonable way to go forward on immigration,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

RFK as campaign model<\/h4>\n

Another audience member asked Beshear if a potential 2028 Democratic presidential run would resemble\u00a0Robert F. Kennedy\u2019s 1968 campaign style that aimed to unite the country deeply divided in the midst of the Vietnam War, massive poverty and the Civil Rights Movement. Kennedy was a top candidate for the Democratic nomination before his June 1968 assassination.<\/p>\n

Beshear said he would.<\/p>\n

\u201cAbsolutely,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen I think about his campaign \u2026 you think about hope, you think about connection. He made you feel that progress was possible, that we could go up against huge adversaries like poverty and we could do better.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
