Yesterday, President Joe Biden signed an executive order raising the minimum wage for federal contractors to $15 an hour.

Now, it’s up to Congress to pass a $15 minimum wage nationwide for all workers.

The federal minimum wage hasn’t been increased in over a decade, as CEOs and billionaires reap the profits. Now that Democrats have the majority in Congress, it’s time to deliver for working people.

Tell your members of Congress today: lift millions out of poverty and pass a $15 minimum wage now!

An absurdly low minimum wage widens racial and gender pay gaps. And, it subsidizes huge corporations that pay their workers so little that full-time workers need public assistance to survive.

Prominent economists agree that a higher minimum wage will stimulate our economy, lift millions out of poverty, and give workers more money to spend in their communities.

We’re hoping at least 5,000 Six PAC team members like you will tell Congress to raise the minimum wage this week. Add your name here!

Thanks for standing up.
