Political career

Gerry Byrne, who held the riding of Humber—St. Barbe—Baie Verte for the Liberal Party since 1996, decided not to run in the 2015 federal election in June 2014; instead, he opted to run in the 2015 provincial election.^[6]^[9] Hutchings, endorsed by Byrne,^[9] decided to run for the nomination in November 2014.^[5] She secured the nomination in March 2015 to run as the Liberal candidate in the riding of Long Range Mountains.^[10]

Following the 2021 federal election, Hutchings was re-elected;^[14] however, Monsef lost her seat.^[15] Prime Minister Justin Trudeau assigned Hutchings the Rural Economic Development portfolio.^[16] Following a major Cabinet shuffle on July 26, 2023, Hutchings was assigned the additional portfolio of Minister responsible for the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency.^[17]
