Democrats want to bulk up the Covid package with more cash relief, this time for families with kids, the latest sign of a shift within the party away from deficit fears and toward a larger economic safety net.https://t.co/Rm4uEviMvC
The times are a-changing
A $15 dollar an hour minimum wage will lift 900 thousand American workers out of poverty.
How many jobs will be lost and how much a $15 an hour minimum wage will cost is only guesswork.
Yesterday the Congressional Budget Office gave us their guess.
We know for a certainty that 900 thousand workers will be lifted out of poverty if a $15 an hour minimum wage is passed into law.
The increase will help the 900 thousand workers living in poverty today, the overall economy, and every American.
To our Evangelical Christian friends, that’s like Jesus feeding the multitude.
