| Tell Congress: "Raise the minimum wage to at least $15 an hour in the first 100 days of the Biden Administration. American workers, and our families, have already waited too long." | Pamela, The last time America raised the minimum wage, George W. Bush was the President. Has your rent increased in the past 13 years? How about food prices? The Fight for $15 movement has built up to demand that the minimum wage in the United States be a living wage! It's past time we passed a $15 minimum wage! Sign now: Tell Congress to pass a $15 minimum wage in the first 100 days of the Biden Administration! The current federal minimum wage is $7.25 and $2.13 for tipped workers. It's too low to afford rent, much less support a family, and keeps millions of workers stuck in poverty. We can afford to increase the wage. Business owners are pocketing gains that rightly belong to the workers. It's time to change that. As the pandemic makes economic uncertainty more dire across the country, and our essential healthcare, food-service, and retail workers continue to struggle, we must take bold action NOW. SIGN NOW: We need a $15 minimum wage in the first 100 days! Thanks, Mike Phelan Progress America |
