    Increasing the #minimumwage to $10.10/hour will raise millions of families out of poverty & give a much-needed boost to our economy.

        @SenGillibrand Won't increase in the min wage also lead to increases in costs for goods and services? Small biz can only absorb so much.

        @GaryInMassena @SenGillibrand I'm not disputing that. But why should workers pay a penalty for an owner's poor business model?
