Rep. Mica: Stop blocking an increase in the minimum wage!I am starting this petition to improve our economy. Higher wages give workers more $$$ to spend and buy products thus creating more jobs. Rep. Mica and other republican politicians probably get large donations from big corps like Wal-mart to block living wages for their workers so that they can make higher profits and buy more influence in Washington.408 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Pedro Caan

Rep. Fitzpatrick: Support fair wages for workersPeople who work full time should not have to struggle and juggle with their meager paychecks to pay normal living expenses. It is time to turn around the recent trend of more and more people sinking into poverty, and the rich getting richer.664 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Lorrie B Topolin

Raise the minimum wage so my granddaughter can pay off her student loan in my lifetime.I had to work at a minimum wage job after returning from Viet Nam, while I was still in the Army in Texas in order to pay for off post housing for my wife and I. It sucks when the country you fought for treated you like dirt. Most of the Republicans now in congress have never known hardship of military life. So raise the Minimum Wage already532 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Charles Straley

Rep. Joe Pitts: Stop Blocking Minimum Wage Increase for WorkersMembers of my family are working hard every week while struggling to get by on poverty wages. Increasing the Minimum Wage would help thousands of PA workers pay their bills and feed their families - and it has been shown time and again that it would spur our economy - for everyone! Rep. Pitts should do the right thing for PA workers instead of siding with big corporations.270 of 300 SignaturesCreated by G. Gerald Beane

Rep. Upton will you support Business and the Minimum Wage of $10.10?As a clergyman I support an increase in the minimum wage to at least $10.10 an hour. Members of my own family are among thousands of workers who are working hard every week while struggling to get by on poverty wages. But this is also a benefit for business. The argument that a higher minimum wage would hurt business is old and tired. There is clear and compelling evidence that the economy and companies enjoy real benefits when workers are paid more.598 of 600 SignaturesCreated by James Rauner
