I heard from @tnbrando.bsky.social that the current minimum wage in his state is like $7 (forget the exact amount) something?!? DUDE, my first minimum wage job in THE EARLY 2000S was $7.10/hr (WA state) this is bollox. RAISE THE SHYT! No one can (nor should have to) survive on so little

Senator Bernie Sanders
Last night, every Senate Democrat voted for my amendment calling for a $17 an hour federal minimum wage while every Republican but 1 opposed it. The movement to raise the minimum wage to a living wage is growing.
In 2025, a job must lift you out of poverty, not keep you in it.
