Guns: Increase gun control. Ban dozens of assault weapons. Limit size of gun magazines. Require fingerprints to buy a handgun.
The Democrat is a critic of the National Rifle Association and proponent of gun control measures. As governor of the Old Line State, he pushed for and signed sweeping gun control legislation, banning 45 types of assault weapons, limiting magazine clips to ten bullets and requiring anyone purchasing a handgun to enter a fingerprint database.

Obamacare and health care: Expand the Affordable Care Act. Move to an all-payer system.
An Obamacare advocate, OMalley supported expanding Marylands health insurance options before the Affordable Care Act became law. When implementing the new healthcare law during his tenure, Marylands online health exchange saw repeated problems. It was overhauled in 2014. OMalley supported and approved a unique statewide Medicare waiver, designed to move Maryland hospitals away from a fee-for-service payment method. Considered the nations only all-payer system, the state sets medical costs, capping what hospitals can charge. OMalley has said he wants to the system to be a model for the nation.
Trade: Block the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
OMalley recently criticized the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), an international trade deal backed by the Obama administration and Congressional Republicans, arguing that it would hurt the middle class. He has since expanded on the point, telling NPR he wants increased labor regulations.
