      We've seen progress raising the #minimumwage at the city & state levels incl in #NY, but too many Americans are left out of this progress.

      It's unacceptable for any American who is working full time to have to live in poverty. It's time to #raisethewage to $15/hour. #fightfor15

          @SenGillibrand If someone can't move on because of no skills then that is on the individual. Choices we all have and make choices.

          @SenGillibrand Minimum wage jobs are not meant to be a living wage. It's meant for starting out & for extra $. Move on for more $.

          @SenGillibrand Instead you choose to impose a wage that reduces our ability to compete. Why?

          @SenGillibrand You must not understand how inflation works. Giving people more money will just raise prices, lower the value of said dollar.
