$6.55 an hour is not enough

The July 1 increase in the minimum wage was a pittance even before soaring oil prices. Even the increase to $7.25 an hour next year isn’t enough.

Plus, Democrats were sellouts last year for refusing even to consider a COLA index as part of the minimum wage bill.

But, you can do something. Read about what a universal living wage should be.

Then, sign the petition.
