A realistic minimum wage is crucial. With Wall St. bonuses up 15% in 2013 its not a time to be frugal.
Why is this important?
“Our state's current minimum wage is $8. That's not enough and completely disproportionate to inflation and other financial realities. We deserve an economy that works for everyone. Join with me in calling on our state legislature to pass legislation to raise the minimum wage to $12.” (or higher!)
