NYC maybe not the whole state

would you rather see 6 people make $10 and hour at a job or two get laid off for 4 to make $15 an hour?

4 make 15, those other 2 can go find a different job that pays 15 if that's the minimum wage in this scenario

hmm 🤔

$7.25 to $15 in 4 years is fast especially with covid idk 🤷‍♂️

Stimmy bill is getting passed by the house today

they won’t look good to oligarchs

bro its been so exhausting seeing dems talk themselves out of student loans, 2k simulus, border detention, $15 minimum wage, and its only been a month

why even fight for power if you're not going to use it. they need real leadership with vision or the party will exist only as the party of hope under republican lead govt's

Thats all they want to be. The party writ large is not different from republicans in their interests. They just pretend to be otherwise in order to offer the illusion of choice.

How do you propose they would have accomplished any of that?

always nice when every republican votes no

America is the dad from Everybody Hates Chris

I know most dems are just republicans with a D beside their name, but some of y'all need a reality check on the political process. Also the reckless usage of semantics. Bucky should not sound level headed...

Stimulus Bill Update: Passed the House 🗳

Going to the Senate. The House voted 219-212. Not a single Republican voted for it, and 2 Democrats voted against it as well.

As of now, the bill is in one piece, with the minimum wage provision is still intact but it is likely it will be taken out in the Senate.

Minimum wage is garbage and predatory to people that don’t have any other choice.

I worked at McDonald’s in high school for minimum wage and they work you past the time you’re supposed to be there and you only get 15 min breaks which is apparently illegal because I was under 18 and my state law requires at least 30 min. F*** these corporations, they exploit any and everybody.

I should go back to that s*** McDonalds and see if the manager and supervisors still there cause they’re the f***ing worst.

Also f*** the Dems, they’re f***ing useless. I can promise you they don’t get s*** done I won’t be out voting because it really does not matter they’re all liars.

Edit: Or we find an actual progressive in the next election, which I doubt I can actually trust.

Whens the senate voting?

What is their argument? Too much aid?

Idk why yall are saying that biden isnt fighting hard enough for this s*** look at the vote margin. The republicans are lockstep trying to stop any sort of economic relief and you guys are getting mad at Biden for a problem that the republicans are causing

President Joe Biden's $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief plan is moving forward, raising hopes of another round of stimulus checks for most Americans. The House passed the bill early Saturday.

After that, the Senate is likely to take up the spending package, dubbed the American Rescue Plan, in the first week of March, although some wrinkles have emerged during negotiations.
