Raising the min wage from $7.25/hr to $15/hr would increase wages of 32 million workers, a majority of whom currently live below poverty line. If the Dems refuse to do this, they’ll surrender all moral authority among millions of people whose votes they will need in the midterms.

re THINK work, labor - reTHINK MONEY.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Absolutely. As an American who makes more than 3 times the min wage. I strongly advocate for my fellow humans to live a dignified life after working all week long. We DO NOT CARE about some Senate rule, we DO NOT CARE how it gets done, just GET IT DONE and GET IT DONE NOW!

Don't quote me on the guesstimate, but I would wager that a majority of people that $15 would help don't vote because they have been screwed by both sides and grew tired of trying. #FightFor15 might get the biggest voting block in the country involved... the non-voters.

Didn’t you get the memo Marianne? The All Mighty Parliamentarian said paying people a living wage is not possible. Git back to work slaves, whoops... I mean “essential workers.”

What about the many minimum wage workers who would lose their jobs and have to file for unemployment?

@POTUS , @VP , @SenSchumer & the majority of @DNC have the backbone of a mud puddle. They lie, they have no intention of getting it done, it's a show for votes. This is want they do, come 2022 they will be begging for your vote, & lying again. They are professional liars.🤷‍♂️

So you think democrats have moral authority. What an degrading comment. And FYI increasing minimum wage across the board only make goods and services more expensive. Do you know anything about economics.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Will people still vote for them?
