• Living Wage--Raise the Minimum Wage

  • Raise the minimum wage in Colorado
    Ever since his State of the Union address this year, President Obama has been calling on Congress to pass a federal minimum wage increase. He even signed an Executive Order, requiring federal contractors to boost their minimum wage to $10.10. But with the Tea Party in control in Congress, there's little chance of a vote for a federal minimum wage increase. That's why the people need to stand together and demand this of Colorado.
