Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Statement I expresses a normative view because it recommends a particular course of action (i.e. increasing the minimum wage). Statements II and III are descriptive statements that simply describe the reality of the federal minimum wage in the United States, so they are not normative. Therefore, only statement I reflects a normative view.
