Do you know how long it's been since the federal minimum wage was increased, team?
14 years.
That's right. Today marks 14 years since the federal minimum wage was last increased in 2009.
$7.25 is simply not enough for people to afford the increasing cost of housing, food, health care, and basic necessities. The minimum wage was created to protect workers and ensure livable wages, and right now millions of families are being left behind.
Chris believes it's time to increase the federal minimum wage to ensure all families can make ends meet. Do you agree it's time to raise the wage?
Thank you,
Team Pappas
