While it’s great news that the minimum wage increased in 22 states yesterday, the bad news is that the federal minimum wage remains an abysmal $7.25 an hour. Congress must act now to raise the minimum wage to a livable wage.
AFL-CIO ✊@AFLCIO

Minimum wage increased yesterday for nearly half of all U.S. states: AK, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DE, HI, IL, ME, MD, MI, MN, MI, MO, NB, NJ, NY, OH, RI, SD, VT, WA, and Washington, DC.

Breaking news: Ohio voters rejected a measure proposed by Republican lawmakers that would have made it more difficult to change the state constitution, a win for abortion rights supporters as a November vote on access looms. wapo.st/3QwZESh

California is a step closer to giving reparations to millions of Black residents descended from enslaved people, as a state task force presented more than 100 recommendations to legislators last week after more than two years of research and public hearings.

It's no surprise that Republicans are pushing to block @POTUS' plan to deliver student debt relief to 43 million borrowers. Time & again, they've showed they’d rather help giant corporations than working people. I'm taking this fight to the Senate floor. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…
