Legislative Fair Wage Act

We the undersigned, are disturbed by the continuing lack of understanding by Arkansas State Legislators. We recognize those who govern do so constitutionally by the consent of those governed. Recently, State Rep. Butch Wilkins' bill HB1402, to raise the minimum wage from $6.25 an hour to $8.25 an hour failed by one vote in the House Public Health, Welfare and Labor Committee. Therefore, we challenge every Arkansas State Legislator to lower their salaries to minimum wage levels. We challenge them to live as those they seek to govern. To lead by example.
