Raise the minimum wage!

Too many Americans put in their forty hours – or more – and still end the week in poverty.

That’s wrong, and raising the minimum wage would help change that.

Right now, legislation is before Congress that would make it happen. Unfortunately, Senate leadership refuses to bring it to the floor.

We’re calling on Senate leadership to change that and raise the minimum wage.

Sign your name to our petition and make sure they know that Americans stand with working families!

To U.S. Senate leadership:

Legislation is pending right now that would raise the minimum wage to $12 and improve the lives of hard working Americans.

Working families deserve a raise. Bring the bill to the floor and give it your full support. It’s time to make work pay for everyone!
