Working people want to see the Squad stand up to the establishment. Progressive leaders and leaders of major labor unions need to harness that desire and publicly urge that the Squad use their numerical balance & refuse to vote on the MUST PASS stimulus bill unless $15 is in it.— Kshama Sawant (@cmkshama) March 6, 2021
Or has the moment passed and the House already voted on the bill?
They didn't though, the $15 minimum wage was stripped out of the Covid Stimulus because the parliamentarian said a higher wage wouldn't have an affect on the budget therefore it cannot be a part of reconciliation.
Edit: Sorry, I meant $15 attached to Covid relief. Senate rejected $15 outright (thumbs down heard round the world), but dare them to reject the Covid Bill over $15/hour.
