Lifeways CEO was paid £923,000 last year. The company’s 4 directors earned £1.65million, while paying its care workers the minimum wage. Workers told us staffing levels were at times dangerously low, and they had to work up to 16 hours a day. I put this to the CEO. 2/2

Our minimum wage in Pennsylvania has been stuck at $7.25/hour for the last 16 years. In that time, every single one of our neighboring states has raised the wage. Our minimum wage is too damn low, it's holding our economy back – and I'm going to keep fighting to raise it here in Pennsylvania.

California Bans Low-Skill Jobs with new $20 minimum wage for fast food workers. Mass layoffs are already being announced, while major chains pour money into store automation so they can keep running without workers.

The Conservatives rigged the economy against workers. People were left low paid and easy to sack - wealth flowed out of communities to the super rich. We need a £15 minimum wage and stronger collective bargaining to put money back in workers’ pockets.

The minimum wage should be $146 / hr If you made .0444 oz per gold per hour like they did in the 1970's min wage would be $146 It took them 7.5 years worth of salary to buy a house, today is 30 years So should we up the minimum wage or stop paying in worthless dollars?

If you want to know why you or your relatives can’t get any work? It’s because those here on student visas are taking the full-time jobs when they’re not supposed to. In the process, they get paid in cash and work for less than minimum wage. So the employers enable it and prefer these foreign “students” over Canadians.

Workers are not asking to get rich. They just want to afford three meals a day. In the richest country in the history of the world, no one should work for starvation wages. It is time to raise the disgraceful $7.25/hr federal minimum wage to a living wage of AT LEAST $17/hr.
