John,
Last night, an unelected “parliamentarian” in the Senate issued
non-binding guidance that a $15 minimum wage could not be included in the
COVID relief package.
Then, President Biden’s Chief of Staff said Vice President Harris won’t
overrule this guidance, even though she has the power to do just that.
Democrats have the power to end GOP minority rule and pass a $15 minimum
wage with the COVID relief package. And they have the responsibility to
deliver a wage increase to the millions and millions of working people
making below $15 per hour right now (some as low as $7.25). We’re working
to transform the Democratic Party so economic justice for working people
is prioritized.

We haven’t given up on the minimum wage remaining in the COVID relief
bill, but it’s going to take a fight. That’s why we’re part of a coalition
of progressives pressuring Congress and the White House to pass the $15
minimum wage in the relief bill.
If the Democratic Party was more committed to ending GOP minority rule and
helping working people than to not disrupting archaic norms, the
working-class of this country would be in much better shape.
When Republicans wanted to give tax cuts to the wealthy in 2001, they
didn’t listen to the parliamentarian’s advice and did it anyway. We must
have a Democratic Party willing to use its power to help the working-class
as much as Republicans are willing to use power to help the 1%.
