How said it is to live in a nation where we expect hardworking individuals to raise a family on minimum wage. For too long, our PA law of $5.15 per hour was crippling our families and creating a wide gap between classes. Increasing the minimum wage to $7.15 has greatly helped, but more needs to be done to alleviate the massive poverty that we find ourselves in. Below is an article for the co-author of “A Just Minimum Wage: Good for workers, business and Our future.” Also, check out our poll and tell us what you think the minimum wage should be!
