John, did you see this?
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell believes that wages are rising too quickly and that employment is too high. He also said that ‘economic pain’ will be necessary to reduce inflation.
John, who will this ‘pain’ affect the most? The working and middle class families that already struggle with inflated prices while the federal minimum wage remains the same.
With the wave of unionization efforts happening across the nation, now is the time to stand up for labor rights in America and protect workers against corporate greed and wage theft. How can we do that? We can start by pressuring the Senate to pass the PRO Act and guarantee labor rights to ALL workers. And we can finally raise the minimum wage for the first time since 2009.
Here’s the reality, John: We have a living wage shortage. We need to be fighting for increased minimum wages and more protections for workers, not giving more handouts out to large corporations.
As chair of the Progressive Caucus, Pramila has already led the fight for protecting workers through the PRO Act and increasing the minimum wage. But we need to continue to support Pramila's leadership in Congress now more than ever as she fights back against attempts to slow our progress on this critical issue. Will you chip in $3 or more right now?
In solidarity,
Team Jayapal
