Thanks for all you do!
It's impossible to climb into
the middle class when it's a struggle just to put food on the table. All
American families deserve a fair shot at the American dream, and our country is
strongest when everyone that works hard has the opportunity to succeed.
If the minimum wage had kept pace with inflation over the past 40 years, today it would be $10.86 an hour. Instead, a mother working at a minimum wage job is only making $7.25 an hour. This hardship on working families is only worsened by the fact that two thirds of workers earning the minimum wage are women.
By giving 17 million
hard-working Americans a raise to a more livable wage, the economy would grow by
$22 billion and create about 85,000 new jobs.
If you work, you shouldn’t live in poverty — simple as that. It’s time to raise the federal minimum wage.
Thanks for your support,
Mark
