Show it to your maga friends, republicans want their people to be poor ;

“ Scott Bessent, President-elect Trump’s Treasury secretary nominee, said Thursday that he would not support raising the minimum wage.”

“ So you don’t think we should change the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour?” Sanders asked.

“No, sir,” Bessent responded.

The national minimum wage has been stuck at $7.25 since 2009” https://thehill.com/business/5090420-trump-treasury-secretary-nominee-wont-support-raising-minimum-wage/

What's also interesting is for years the Right resisted #minimumwages as a distortion of 'efficient' labour markets & then when they arrived bailed to keep them low... but when you're in a tight spot politically....

Ten years in, the movement to raise the minimum wage is gaining momentum across the country.
