Minimum wages for fast food workers:
Wisconsin - $7.25
California - $20.00
Since CA's wage hike for fast food workers went into effect in 2024, worker pay increased 11%, employment stayed the same, and menu prices increased just 1.5% compared to the control group.
Wisconsin must #RaiseTheWage.
Employers shouldn't get to build a business on the backs of tipped workers. Abolish the subminimum wage and raise the minimum wage. Pay people a real paycheck. #raisethewage #labor #workers #inequality

It's time that the hardworking taxpayers of Pennsylvania stop being held responsible for subsidizing low wages while corporate billionaires just get richer. #RaiseTheWage
Minimum wage stagnates. Workers deserve a living wage. #RaiseTheWage #EconomicJustice

No worker should be required to depend on customer generosity to make rent. Tips are a bonus, not a paycheck. End the subminimum wage and pay workers what they're owed. #labor #workers #inequality #raisethewage
Concrete steps to #RaiseTheWage, secure #HealthPD & defend #AcademicFreedom; last week our #UCHCAAUP members ratified successor w/ @uconnhealth.bsky.social that tracks w/agreements #SEBAC siblings secured. #TheCTDifference @aft.org @afthighered.bsky.social @afthealthcare.bsky.social @aaup.org
The costs for food, gas, housing and electricity and more have skyrocketed. Trump and the GOP have shredded the social safety net. But Republicans somehow still think a $7.25 an hour federal minimum wage is adequate. #RaiseTheWage.
Policy Point of the Day - Raise the Wage: House Dems voted to raise the wages for nearly 1 million PA workers -- hit by higher costs from GOP's tariffs, chaotic foreign policy, and unprecedented health care cuts, HB 2189 | Rep. Dawkins

Taxpayers are funding annual raises for elected officials. Those same taxpayers deserve to see their wages grow as well. I’ve introduced HB 2312 with @repronigreen.com to increase the minimum wage at the same time and same rate as lawmakers’ annual cost-of-living salary increase.
