Lots of steps before this can become law. Have to pass budget resolution through both houses, and go through Senate vote-a-rama. If all 50 Senate Ds vote for resolution and it passes House, they have to draft reconciliation before it hits floor in September + another vote-a-rama https://t.co/iWSa4tYnL9

Dems say minimum wage meeting went … surprisingly well!

Manchin seemed steadfast about $11 an hour, per attendee, but Sinema suggested that if the wage was raised to $11 now and aggressively indexed, wouldn't be far off $15 by 2024@marianne_levinehttps://t.co/C81q9iIkVn
