@TheTsengMao @dantypo @ohyoudidntknw @MaximumK75753 All employees deserve a raise every year. It’s the cost of doing business. If a business can’t do that, they are a crappy business owner.

@dantypo @ohyoudidntknw @MaximumK75753 If you’re company is taking in record profits, and you haven’t increased your employees wages. You’re a thief

Am I the only one who still views minimum wage as gas money for your car and movie tickets for you and your date while you gain work experience in high school or at the bookstore in college?
When did it become a career wage?
JB Pritzker@JBPritzker
$7.25 an hour is about $14,000 a year. No one can survive on that. People can barely survive on double that. We raised the minimum wage in Illinois. It's long overdue everywhere else.

@dantypo @ohyoudidntknw @MaximumK75753 I get what you’re saying.but u know as well as I(since u own a business)not everyone(most) has same drive to succeed as you. What do those people get? Minimum wage from their employer than the govt helps them out.if you want them off the govt dime you need to pay them above min.

@ohyoudidntknw @MaximumK75753 What do you think a cashier at Sheetz should get paid?
English
Working families have been neglected for far too long.
In Illinois, we did something about it:
Lowered costs. Expanded health care. Raised wages.
That’s what Democrats are supposed to do. Let’s start acting like it.

@AlinejadMasih Trump was giving these folks hope in January..and he abandon them. He talked about regime change and help for the people..he is spinning it like he has done something and he has not. What a disgrace

This is Iran in 21st-century: A photo of the lifeless body of the heroic martyr Sasan Azadvar, who was executed for protesting.
Imagine building a life for 21 years and losing it to a system that treats human beings as disposable.
Twenty-one. That’s not a criminal mastermind. That’s someone who should be figuring out life, not losing it.

@mdubowitz wtf! Winning ?? We have been at a cease fire for a week. What have we done lately to remotely say we are winning??

@DarrenBaileyIL I get it..but what is your answer other than no more taxes. Whats your solution.

Illinois doesn't need record-breaking tax hikes; we need a government that gets out of the way and cuts taxes so workers can actually breathe.

@LindseyGrahamSC Project freedom was his own doing by attacking Iran..what bs. He is trying to take credit for something he started! What a joke. He needs to help the Iranian people like he said in January.
English
Totally agree with President Trump’s decision to launch Project Freedom, whose purpose is to restore freedom of navigation for the Strait of Hormuz, a vital passageway for the world economy that has been locked down by Iranian terrorism.
It is clear to me that Iran is playing games through negotiations as their last offer to end the conflict was absurd. Again, I hope this conflict can end diplomatically, but it is now time to regain freedom of navigation and forcefully respond to Iran if they insist on terrorizing the world.
Enough with this terrorist regime’s behavior.

@greta Trump said he was going to help the Iranian people in January, then he said he wanted a regime change this is after last summer he took out the nuks! Well what is it? He started a war and it escalated to closing the straight and now he is scrambling to find a way out. Typical!
English
I don’t know any decent person who wants or likes war…I also don’t know anyone (including the world leaders and members of House/Senate I have interviewed) who wants Iran to have a nuclear weapon, over 47 yrs, Iran regime has lied and lied…so tell me what is YOUR solution?

President Trump’s patience with Iran is running out.
It’s time for the regime to get serious about making a deal, or face the consequences.

“Very good news! I have just been informed that eight women protestors who were going to be executed tonight in Iran will no longer be killed…” - President Donald J. Trump 🇺🇸

They hanged him💔
The regim Executes 21-Year-Old karate athlete at dawn Thursday in Prison after Iran’s Supreme Court upheld a death sentence on charges of “enmity against God.”
His crime?
Joining nationwide protests in January 2026.
Security forces reportedly surrounded his body after the execution and buried him under heavy security, preventing any public mourning.
The United States and the international community must make clear: there can be no normalization, no meaningful engagement, while this regime continues to execute young men and women for demanding freedom.#StopExecutionsInIran
Masih Alinejad 🏳️@AlinejadMasih
Iran’s Regime Sentences 21-Year-Old Karate Champion to Death for Protesting، Execution Imminent! So let me get this straight; Sasan Azadvar goes to a protest… and the regime’s response is not a debate, not reform, but a rope? He isn’t a criminal. He’s a kid with medals, a future, and apparently the dangerous idea that freedom should exist. Iran’s Supreme Court looked at this and said, “Yeah, execution sounds about right.” And now the family gets the message from the judicial system: “Come say goodbye.” This is a regime so weak, it has to kill its own young people to feel strong. #StopExecutionInIran
