Hello there,
For years, Democrats have warned that income inequality has worsened in this country -- the rich hoard more and more wealth while many more who are struggling are left to fight over fewer and fewer scraps.
In 2013, the House GOP voted unanimously to defeat a bill that sought to raise the minimum wage.
In 2014, the Senate GOP filibustered a similar bill from getting a vote.
Finally, in 2019, thanks to a wave of progressive Democrats winning their elections, the House passed the Raise the Wage Act. If this bill is enacted, it will incrementally raise the minimum wage to $15 per hour over the next 7 years. It will also eliminate the tipped minimum wage, ensuring they will no longer take home $2.13 an hour. But the Senate, led by Mitch McConnell, refuses to even consider the bill.
We need to press Congress now more than ever to close the wage gap and help working Americans. That's why we're collecting names of engaged Democrats who want to send a message to Congress TODAY. Sign your name with ours and demand action immediately to reduce income inequality >> [link removed]
