“My guess is it will not be in it. But I do think that we should have a minimum wage, stand by itself, $15 an hour,” Biden said in an interview with the CBS Evening News.
Increasing the minimum wage may run afoul of Senate rules on reconciliation, a tool Democrats plan to use to pass Biden’s coronavirus relief bill without Republican support in the closely divided Senate. Biden said he would be prepared to negotiate the wage rise separately and the increase could be phased in.
“No one should work 40 hours a week and live below the poverty wage. And if you’re making less than $15 an hour, you’re living below the poverty wage,” Biden said.Reporting by Eric Beech; Editing by Leslie Adler and Sonya Hepinstall
Malawi not only raised the minimum wage, they also increased the minimum taxable wage two fold and slashed duty on fuel during COVID19 time!
Good move. One size does not fit all. Overall $15 means 1.3 M out of poverty but 1.3 M jobs lost. $11 raises more from poor in WVa with fewer jobs lost. FL CA will reach$15. CA now $14 already

WTF. Min wage better than check! That's every paycheck! Robbers!
The only thing that should be in the COVID relief bill is a check for $2000. That’s it.
If he raises the minimum wage to £10.90/hr all the skilled people will want to have their wages raised as they wont want to be on the same pay as unskilled Mexicans and immigrants,so it will all spiral out of control
Bait and switch
Couple of months ago I came across a recommendation about Yanasvetlana35 wealth how he helped investors to earn lots of money with their investments. and I decided to give a trial with the little I have. Now my little has turned into something great which was not my expectation
With a majority in Congress, dem Adm can't get it done, ha! There is no genuine intention to raise it. They will continue to talk about it forever as an election promise to raise false hope and buy votes.
Of coarse not.
That´s what I call a solid rock...
So... from “I won’t break a promise” to “I’m breaking every campaign promise”? That was quick.
These bluedog Democrats and conservatives sure do love deficits. Increasing the minimum wage will increase federal revenue, and decrease spending on social programs while maintaining the same level of benefits for low wage workers.
Placebo!

That is ok. Biden like the rest back pedal on all their promises. My plan includes a minimum wage of $25 and a 20% increase to all social security recipients. I don't back peddle.
Terrible.
good
It should not be.
Not to be all apologist but there’s only so much you can pass in reconciliation.
2 weeks in, 2 major campaign promises broken
