We set a
record today. Not a good one.

July 24th, 2020, marks the longest period of time that the United States
has gone without raising the minimum wage since its introduction. That’s
11 years.

You know what hasn’t stayed the same in 11 years? Almost every cost of
living expense you can imagine. Food, rent, health care, child care,
education, utilities – you name it and it’s more than likely that it cost
less in 2009 than it does now.



[ [link removed] ]This is economic injustice, plain and simple. In Congress, we’re
fighting to restructure our economy to work for working-class folks – not
just a powerful few. Will you contribute to help us build this progressive
movement?

People can’t live on $7.25. Families definitely can’t live on $7.25.
There’s a reason why almost half of Americans would struggle to deal with
just a $400 emergency expense, and it’s because our economy is not
designed to work for the vast majority of workers.

We can’t let COVID-19 push this issue to the backburner either. The
economic instability we’ve seen throughout the pandemic has been worsened
by the low wages that prevented so many families from saving for an
emergency. This is our opportunity to make sure that doesn’t happen again.

[ [link removed] ]Our movement is fighting to pay workers what they deserve, but it’s a
fight that looms larger than just us. If you can afford it, will you
contribute $0.00 to help us keep up the fight for economic
justice?

In solidarity,

Ro
