@kimdefalco.bsky.socialStunning at what the minimum wage would be if it kept up with worker productivity over the years - $26. What's wrong with this picture.
@liamomaraiv.bsky.socialThe #DelanoGrapeStrike began on #ThisDayInHistory in 1965 when mostly #Filipino farm workers in #California demanded to be paid the federal #MinimumWage and walked out. They were joined by Hispanic workers in an action that took five years, and later founded #UnitedFarmWorkers.
@erniejohnston.bsky.socialWe need the #MinimumWage to be increased by 10% each year until it reaches $25 / hour.
@dsafire.bsky.socialThe WHOLE POINT of #MinimumWage is to prevent people who work 80 hours a week from starving to death while greedy rich assholes rake it in.
Look around. Again, THE WHOLE FUCKING POINT.

@demureandcunty.bsky.socialThe @whitehouse-47.bsky.social posted this on Twitter… the same #WhiteHouse that is anti #union, pro #forProfitPrisons, refuses to raise #minimumWage and uses #communism that doesn’t exist in the US to fear monger? Maybe they meant “runs over American workers” bc THEY HATE US
@me2ak.bsky.socialIs there a corporate profit to wage ratio or measure that can be used as a regular economic indicator? The rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer should earn a business a failing grade. And a wage to housing cost ratio or measure. #MinimumWage #LivingWage #AffordableHousing
@lincolnsquare.media7.25 AN HOUR. THAT’S THE FEDERAL MINIMUM.
It’s been stuck there since 2009.
Workers deserve better than $7.25.
