Issue Position: Living Wage

Issue Position

Happiness can be found in a living wage job.

The exodus of our best and brightest minds continues year after year. Once educated by us, they leave because we lack employment opportunities for them. We must do better at forming partnerships and courting higher wage jobs to keep families together and to reap the rewards of our education investments in our youth. We also need to form public-private partnerships to provide decent housing options for our younger citizens.
