There isn't a better time to act on this most important issue than right now. Please take up the fight for all New Yorkers now! No one should be expected to live on less; do you? We all know Congress makes a lot more than minimum wage, but could you survive on it? We are just asking that the minimum wage be a real living wage.
Why is this important?
Raise the NY minimum wage! It's currently $8.00 /hr, and no one can live on that! It should be raised to $12/hr! The line between rich and poor is getting bigger. Lets help by signing this message to our officials.
