Narcisse unveils statewide plan in Marshalltown
From the Times-Republican:
Jonathan Narcisse’s vision of a better Iowa includes one where government is more accountable, tax reform promotes community stability and there is more investment in vocational education.
It also includes one where the minimum wage is repealed for teenagers and state departments are slashed.
“We cannot fix the state without doing some unpopular things,” he said as he revealed his 10-point plan in Marshalltown Thursday.
However, he said proposals such as repealing the minimum wage for teenagers should help them in the long run.
“How do you get your teenagers work experience if you don’t repeal the minimum wage for teenagers?” Narcisse asked. “Business owners can’t afford to hire teenagers, train them and subsidize their education to that level.”
Narcisse’s plan is called “An Iowa Worth Fighting For.”
