Positions
LiberalConservative
Economy & Taxes
Supports new taxes aimed at the ultra-wealthy (including a tax on loans/lines of credit backed by assets and a billionaire minimum tax) and using revenue for expanded social programs like universal pre-K and childcare. Has cosponsored legislation to close corporate and offshore tax loopholes and to restore/expand child tax credits.
Healthcare
The candidate has supported expanding government healthcare programs and drug-price negotiation while also describing support for a public option and preserving private insurance; however, his record includes both a 2023 cosponsorship of a Medicare for All bill and earlier statements opposing single-payer, creating mixed signals about whether he endorses single-payer versus a public-option approach. Positions emphasize access, lowering prescription costs, and expanding Medicare/Medicaid and reproductive health access.

Abortion & Reproductive Rights
Supports broad federal protections for abortion access, has cosponsored legislation to codify Roe v. Wade and has introduced bills to expand access to abortion care and medication abortion while opposing criminalization of patients and providers.
Climate & Energy
Supports rapid transition to renewable energy and endorses the principles and goals of a Green New Deal; advocates major clean-energy investment and policies to advance offshore wind and shift federal research funding from fossil fuels to renewables.
Public Safety & Guns
Dan Goldman supports comprehensive gun safety measures including an assault weapons ban, universal background checks, stronger red flag laws, waiting periods, prohibiting ghost guns and high-capacity magazines, and other regulations as well as legislative actions to close background-check loopholes and hold gun manufacturers accountable.
