It's been 16 years since the federal minimum wage has been raised. $7.25 isn't a livable wage for anyone in America or Pennsylvania. Prices are rising and wages haven't kept up. We need to pass the Raise the Wage Act!

Americans feel unsafe when unmarked, masked ICE agents patrol their streets. Nobody feels safer when the might of the US military is being deployed against them.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govJul 21(source)
