I’m a republican but we need to seriously raise the minimum wage.
Uh, you might wanna consider if being a Republican is more important to you than not living in a country full of homeless starving people is before you cast your next vote.
Most of your fellow Republicans believe deep down in the abolishment of the minimum wage, and are adamantly against ever raising it again.
Every single Senate Republican voted against raising the minimum wage to $15, all but 3 House Republicans did the same. It wasn’t really a surprise political result to anyone, nor will it be surprising when they all vote against it again.
Historically they’re been concerned about the inflation risk with raising minimum wage.
So inflation is bad already. They blame rising wages for inflation, and you think they’re going to raise the minimum wage? Why? Is there something in the party platform about raising the minimum wage?
I highly doubt there is, and I highly doubt that if they got more power that that’s what they’d do.
Yeah and how far did that get? I see it was “announced” in 2021. He pass it? He even really do anything besides a press conference?
I’ll expect it to pass at exactly the same time as Trump’s replacement for Obamacare. 😉
I pay attention to what Republicans are “trying to get done”. That’s the problem is that I pay attention to it. They always find a way to speak big on things for working people and then get in office and pass tax cuts for their millionaire donors.

Man some things have really hit the “I mean, it’s one banana, Michael. What could it cost? $10?” levels of ridiculousness price wise.
