    What's up with $15 minimum wage?

    The democrats control everything and can pass whatever they like. They have been going on and on about raising the minimum wage to $15 for over a decade. Although I am against it I do have to admit that it is very popular with voters. So, why have they not put it to the floor for a vote? Why was it stuck in the Covid bill? Why haven't it's biggest advocates like AOC and Sanders introduced legislation on this?

    Looks like one of those BROKEN PROMISES. Oh wait...that's not what they're
    called anymore....it's called a......LIE.

    no state of the union from Joe, deportations have stopped, no 15 dollars an hour minimum wage, no holding saudi prince responsible for chopsuey khashoggi. No 2000 dollar stimulus check to his supporters, no statehood for DC and PR. No press conference yet for the Media buttkissers. Don't know what's happened to that Unity thang. I'm sure they working on that.

    not looking good.

    This is interesting. AOC now says $15 minimum wage is a compromise because it should be $24. How is it a compromise when the supposed radical leftists won't put it up for a vote? They are still pushing Biden to overrule the parliamentarian and have it included in the Covid Relief bill.

    All talk and no trousers.
