In addition to having served as Chairman of the Health and Human Resources Subcommittee, Hamilton served on the Public Education and Public Safety Subcommittees and was one of the few legislators who served on the Budget Conference Committee, whose members negotiate the final version of Virginia's budget.

2009

In August 2009 Virginia newspapers obtained emails which revealed Hamilton expected to be hired by Old Dominion University (ODU) in return for procuring public funding for a new teacher training center.

The General Assembly went on to give the center $500,000 a year in state funding, and ODU, in turn, gave Hamilton a $40,000 a year job as an independent contractor.

Once the emails were made public Hamilton and ODU immediately severed ties.

On September 17, ODU released an internal audit on the Hamilton hiring.

The audit found that Hamilton's invoices had "no details of services rendered" and that his office was "only lightly used in the beginning and then later not at all."

Regarding ODU, the audit concluded the school suffered from a lack of internal control and failed to follow its own policies and procedures.
