(The Blaze) Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) has upped the ante in the fight for a higher minimum wage telling attendees at a One Fair Wage event that the federal minimum wage should actually be $20 per hour not $15 as is currently being pushed by the Democratic Party. One Fair Wage is a nonprofit organization that advocates for higher minimum wage for tipped employees. Whats the news? Big fights like this one $15by the way when we started it it shouldve been $15. Now I think it should be $20. Make sure America Rising hears that. Tlaib said. It should be $20 an hour$18-20 an hour because everything all the coststhey say all this is going to raise the costs. I can tell you this: Milk has gone up. Eggs have gone up. Everything has gone up the cost of things has gone up. The cost of food has gone up. The cost of a lot of things that we need has gone up already. The House of Representatives just passed the Raise the Wage Act a bill that would raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour incrementally over the course of six years.
