WASHINGTON, Feb. 5 -- Sen. Ruben Gallego issued the following press release:
Today, Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) introduced the Give America a Raise Act to raise the minimum wage to $20 an hour.
"Across the country, people are struggling to make ends meets. But as the cost of groceries, housing, and utilities continue to go up, the minimum wage has remained stagnate for over a decade," said Senator Gallego. "No one who works full time in this country should live in poverty. Building an economy that works for working people starts with ensuring not just a minimum wage but a living wage, and that's what this bill does."
