raised minimum wage is a must tho. inflation has moved passed the floor a while ago

it hasn't been raised in 11 years, and if it kept the pace that america had up to this point, it would be nearly 20/hr at this point (i think lol)

Biden's proposal, called "The American Rescue Plan," includes:

A $1,400 top-up for stimulus checks, which will bring the total distributed amount from December to $2,000. > $400 in weekly federal unemployment benefits through September.
$130 billion in funds to reopen schools.
$350 billion in state and local assistance.

That s*** shouldn't be legal

nigga WHAT!!!???

I been reading about it on twitter for about half a hour it not being blatantly obvious makes me scared that sleepy is trying to avoid doing so

saying we need another reagan is saying blacks need a crack epidemic again

what the f*** happened the other $600? it's supposed to be $2000 you shriveled old b******

NYC had $15 min wage for dumb long too so bump our s*** up to $20 if that's the case

biden off to a corny ass start man f*** him

Someone drop the full pdf and I'll read it and find out for you guys

Let’s gooo

servers being paid by the tip model is 100% absurd, and realistically should be changed

but as someone who served for 5 years trust me most servers are preeettttyyyy fine with it lmao

Are they extending unemployment? That should be a priority

Hate Reagan all you want but look at taxes before he entered office and what he lowered them to.

@Tomorrow @EMY @2005hondacivic

Surprise, when Democrats control the senate s*** can actually get done.

I feel like the people who cry about server salaries never actually worked that job before

literally any person I know who is a waitress or works bottle service makes stupid bank

yeah housing prices is def one of the most important things the federal gov needs to address

i dont know enough about rent control, but from what i do know it seems like a really smart that'll help millions and millions of people

@op update op plz

Usually when min wage increases all wages close to it increase too

So ideally nyc should as well

Y’all so single minded

yeah that's part of why people hate him lol. he lowered the top marginal tax rate by a f*** ton and made the rich richer and the rest of america worse off and more unequal

yuupp. people just hate having to tip their server on top of their meal. but hey dont hate the player hate the game lmao

serving can be cash if you find a good restaurant and youre somewhat competent. but it definitely isn't a stable pay structure, and like i said i do think it should probably be fixed

I can tell you're white by this response lol. Reagan was and is terrible for minorities

So you rather pay 40% in taxes ok
