I am 73 years old and have been among the working poor all my life.
I have always worked but never seemed to get ahead, but through the meager minimum wages increases that I have gotten through the years, I have been able to survive , but that's all just survive.
Why is this important?
I know what it is to be unemployed and/or under paid in America and it's not right to jus discount the poor and middle class hard working people of this state.
