No one working 40 hours a week should live in poverty.
That is why I introduced the Raise the Wage Act to gradually increase the federal minimum wage to $17 an hour by 2030.
It's past time hardworking Americans got the pay they deserve!

It should be $21 NOW!
CEOs earning millions, paying the very people that make their business run the very least amount that they can.
It’s crap and we all know it.
When rent is over a grand, the math just doesn’t add up.
Stop insulting everyone’s intelligence with bills that will not leave committee and start taking meaningful action!
And protect the National Labor Relations Board! The current administration is hiring Pinkertons from right to far right.
“Livable wage” or livable income is the conversation, not this. Livable wage in my state is already over $24/hr… this is BS.
Wake tf up...it should be like $30/hr by then.
trump will probably make being a democrat illegal anyway...which may not even be a bad thing, in itself.
Democrats are weak, feckless, status-quo-ers.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🖕🏻🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣!
Are you serious???... and do you know that CEO salaries have increased by 1,085% from 1978 to 2023, while the typical worker's earnings rose by only 24%????
"The living wage in the United States was $25.02 per hour in 2022 or $104,077.70 per year before taxes, according to research from MIT."

There is NO reason to have to wait
If Donnie and the Trumpee's can steal ouro.ey we can make $25i minimum wage all states effective by the end of May
Deal or no deal
That's the Act you need to introduce.
Aim high!
The current $7.25 federal minimum wage is lower in inflation adjusted dollars than at any time since 1950!
The current administration wants everything else in our lives to resemble 1950, so at least they are consistent 🙄
