2018 NH Governor's race: on Jobs


Molly Kelly: Recognize and value the contributions of older workers

I'm running for governor to build a New Hampshire that works for everyone by championing policies that will help ensure economic security for all. Help meet our state's workforce needs by ensuring that companies recognize and value the contributions of older workers; and reinstate net neutrality on the state level to provide a free, open internet for everyone, including our small businesses.ÿ

Jilletta Jarvis: Reduce occupational license requirements

Best Way to Create Jobs: Remove occupational license requirements for any job that does not pose a public safety threat. Allow doctors who are licensed in other states and have no negative history on file to practice without re-licensing. I'm proposing a 5 year tax ramp-up period for new small businesses so they have a chance to become successful.
