        @USDOL You're spending MY tax dollars to campaign for Democrats. I expect nothing but corruption from Obama, but isn't this a bit blatant?

        @USDOL 2—Are you legally able to lobby us using tax money? Doesn't that violate the Hatch Act? What part of your budget allows you to lobby?

        @USDOL 1—Do an honest comparison w/min wage in $. Our median income is much higher than those countries. This chart shows a good thing.
