Biden put an executive order for $15/hr 3 months into office. That doesn’t do anything for us because we don’t work for the executive branch, that has to be done by congress.
So that means there were corporate Democrats in Congress that didn’t support raising minimum wage to 15 by 2025 as proposed.
Don’t be ridiculous. They spent an afternoon on it. Did they try to pass $14.50 after the first attempt failed? $12.00? $10.00? Even $8.00? Did Biden spend weeks after his election to get his own platform passed, with fireside chats and press releases and exerting pressure on his party (at least)?
No. That’s because he could not be bothered, he made the absolute minimum effort possible to be able to claim “I tried”.
Not even ONE standalone bill attempt.
Please realize the difference between “This really must pass and we’re not getting anything else done until we make a deal we haven’t increased the minimum wage in 20 years” and “welp, we tried folks!”
Open your eyes, it’s right out in front of you. He has always been a sellout and a tired hack, don’t be a sucker.
