    Motivated in part by anticipated savings from the newly passed tax plan, @Walmart, our country’s largest employer, will raise its starting hourly wage from $9 to $11 & offer paid parental leave.https://www.pressherald.com/2018/01/11/walmart-to-raise-starting-hourly-wage-to-11-offer-paid-parental-leave …

        #CHIP is still not reauthorized and #SelloutSusan is still working hard to convince people her vote to throw millions off of health care, raise premiums to give Trump, Corker, etc tax cuts was a great thing. Could you imagine if she worked this hard for CHIP? #GOPTaxScam #Crooks

        This tweet didn't age well. Did you notice Walmart is trending as they surprised thousands of employees today by closing 64 Sam's stores?

        Health insurance .@SenatorCollins voted to detabilize & increase pricing w/ #GOPTaxScam. They lost their jobs & she’s caused rising premiums. But WE are paying for her health insurance. For life. Sickening.

        Wow Susan you mean they'll actually have to use their own money to pay workers? You mean tax payers won't be paying salaries? They used have to apply for food stamps to live SUSAN. While Walmart got lots of tax subsidies. @ALEC_states #KochBrothers Take your guilt elsewhere.pic.twitter.com/qJhnWfoeKp

        This is on top of the fact people are for the most part not purchasing product made in the USA. It's the never ending cycle of poverty here & there. They wiped out most of all downtowns in America. I remember when they 1st came to Columbus, NE. geez.

        Well, Sen. they were loaded with cash before GOP Tax Cuts. They, were basically a Corporate welfare recipient because, many entry level workers with families were on Gov't welfare too. And, $11.00 per hour aint going to change that much Senator!

        Walmart the richest company in America, had this raise planned. Not because of your heroic vote that gutted their healthcare. #youknownoshame

        Two things: Walmart gave the same $1 raise in 2015 & 2016 without a tax cut. Had to, in order to compete w/ Target's plan to escalate to $15 by 2020. Maternity leave is only for full-time hourly workers. Managers often try to keep employees at part-time status.

        Hey Senator, looks like they figured out how to pay for it. Closing 63 locations, some as abruptly as today without notifying their employees.http://www.businessinsider.com/walmart-suddenly-closes-sams-club-stores-2018-1 …
