Last week, Connecticut became the first state in the nation to pass a $10.10 minimum wage! It's time for Colorado to do the same.
Why is this important?
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.
