Positions
Economy & Taxes
Supports tax code changes that lower taxes for working people while shifting more burden onto land speculation; advocates targeted public investments in education and health (including a public option) as part of an economic agenda. Emphasizes simplifying the tax code and policy measures intended to restore economic fairness and put more money in working families' pockets.
Healthcare
Supports a Health Security plan that provides universal primary care and a public insurance option, with measures to lower prescription costs. Emphasizes expanding access to healthcare through government-led programs rather than full privatization or repeal of existing protections.

Supports large federal investment in clean energy research and deployment (proposes a $120 billion 'Fusion Fund' to accelerate commercial fusion) and advocates a national reforestation program (a plan to plant 100 billion trees by 2050) as practical climate solutions that create jobs and reduce emissions.
News
Joshua Hamilton is in the news as a candidate in a congressional primary. The latest summary says he is among the Democrats competing in Maine’s 2nd Congressional District race to replace Rep. Jared Golden, who is not seeking re-election. Another report also places him in a crowded California 26th Congressional District primary to replace retiring Rep. Julia Brownley, but the details are sparse and it is unclear which race is most directly tied to him.
