      Raising the #minimumwage to $10.10/hr would lift millions of families out of poverty and into the middle class & give a boost to our economy

          Raising the #minimumwage is part of my #OpportunityPlan to empower working women--64% of all min wage workers are women. #raisethewage

          @SenGillibrand @WVUGuy29 I dont believe thats true. Prices will raise & people will be given less hours to work per week.

          @SenGillibrand Insist on $15, you might get $12. Dems need to know how to negotiate better.

          @SenGillibrand Sen G..small business labor cost increasing 20+% is far worse than benefit of $6K to family earning $15K. Still in poverty!

          @SenGillibrand raising the minimum wage would cause an increase on prices on everything, insurance and homes, etc. there's no reason

          @SenGillibrand that's not true! How about stop the FED from devaluing the dollar. That's the only thing that'd boost Econ. Think about it.
