Since 2009, the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour hasn't been increased, despite inflation and increased costs of living.
Even companies like McDonalds are saying $15 an hour is not a big deal.
Numerous executives have admitted that a staggered minimum wage increase would not hurt their business, yet corporate lobbying groups are still pushing back.
The Economic Policy Institute found that $15 an hour in 2024 equates to about $12.98 in today’s dollars. As of right now, there’s not a single county in America where even an individual can have a secure standard of living working full-time, year-round at $12.98 per hour.
We’re fighting for a fair, livable wage for everyone, no matter where they live. Can you chip in today?
