TaxesNo. 02/12

Federal income taxes should be raised on households earning more than $400,000 a year.

Health careNo. 03/12

Federal premium subsidies for Affordable Care Act marketplace plans should be expanded.

Background

These subsidies lower the monthly cost of health plans bought on HealthCare.gov and state marketplaces. Expanding them would lower premiums for more buyers and increase federal spending.

Adam Hamilton Agree

Reverse the cuts to Medicaid and restore the ACA subsidies that hold premiums down

ImmigrationNo. 04/12

Congress should fund more physical barriers along the U.S.-Mexico border.

It's past time that we finish building the border wall, and what better way to do it than with the unused COVID-19 slush fund to help President Trump seal the border?

GunsNo. 05/12

Federal law should require background checks for all gun sales, including private sales.

AbortionNo. 06/12

Abortion laws should be set by each state rather than by Congress.

Background

Since the Supreme Court's 2022 Dobbs decision, each state sets its own abortion laws. Agreeing means Congress should not pass a national law that either expands or restricts access.

Adam Hamilton Disagree

I don't believe that the Kansas Legislature should be making that decision for women in our state. Neither should the United States Senate or House.

EconomyNo. 09/12

The U.S. should keep broad tariffs on imported goods.

Background

Tariffs are taxes paid on imported goods. Since 2025 the U.S. has applied tariffs to imports from most countries, and this statement is about keeping them in place.

Adam Hamilton Disagree

When Washington imposes sweeping tariff taxes without a vote, the bill lands on Kansas farmers, manufacturers, and families

Public safetyNo. 11/12

A president should be able to send the National Guard into a state over its governor's objection.

Background

Governors normally command their state's National Guard, but federal law lets a president take control of it in some situations. Since 2025, the use of that power to send troops into cities has been challenged in court.
