    2/3 of minimum wage workers are women. Raising the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour is a women’s issue. Retweet if you agree.

        I agree that everyone deserves to live above poverty, but raising minimum wage isn't the answer. Please consider a #basicincome for all!

        also, it shouldn't take 4-5 years to raise it that high - and even in 2-3 years $15 will be too low

        I'm a liberal small business owner and I can say with 100% certainty that a $15 min wage would be a disaster in rural America.

        Not a women's issue. Do you really want to destroy all small business in America? 15 min wage would do just that and cripple larger biz.

        When the min. wage is increased to $15 per hour and the layoffs start, if 2/3 of the people laid off are women, you won't say it is sexist.

        now they are on a different tax bracket, you are standing by 45* tax reform? I think you really need to deal with American living well

        I agree with raising minimum wage, and support you 100% as a politician, but pidgeonholing this as a "woman's" issue may work against you.

        Increase in workers' wages can boost demand and create more jobs according to an analysis by #Berkeley economistshttp://econofact.org/do-minimum-wages-really-kill-jobs …

        Putting a cap on rent would also help. Wages go up so does rent, food & everything else.

        No...we need to get women out of minimum wage jobs. That's an education & cultural issue. There is so much wrong with this reasoning.

        there will always be a need for workers in min wage jobs. these jobs need to pay enough to live.

        Agreed. Not my pt tho. These workers do not need to be majority fem. & the FEDERAL min wage needs to be appropriate for the entire NATION.

        but they are women. you're not making a point. the fed minimum wage should be a LIVABLE wage. $15/hr barely is.

        Min wage workers are women as product of oppressive history. That's changing & needs to continue to. Livability of $15/hr is diff argument.

        There are many regions in US that are not metro & need to continue supporting local econ. $15 is WAY more than livable in non metro areas.

        A number like $15/hr as the lowest allowable wage for an entire nation of 320MM+ people needs to be supported by data. Period.

        If you're not aware of how this number has been calculated, you haven't researched enough to have an opinion.
