"The American people are in deep economic pain, and have been for years." - NextGen America President Cristina Tzintzún Ramirez

NextGen’s President, Cristina Tzintzún Ramirez, is saying what we all are feeling, John: This economy isn’t working for us.

Whether you’re shopping for groceries or trying to rent an apartment, everything is more expensive.

But somehow, the federal minimum wage has sat at $7.25 for years. And while some states have increased their minimum wage, millions of people are still clocking in and out of work every day for an hourly wage that just isn’t cutting it.

Here’s a bit of perspective for you, John: Wherever you are in the country, a four-pack of Bounty paper towels probably costs more than the federal minimum wage.

Meanwhile, corporations are reaping the benefits of billion-dollar tax cuts.

It isn’t right.

It isn’t fair.

And we’re going to do something about it.
