[NOW Action List] Time to Raise the Minimum Wage!

"It's Time to Raise the Minimum Wage!


Let Congress hear from you -- Support raising the minimum wage to $7.25 an hour by 2008.


The federal minimum wage has not been raised in almost 10 years. It is time to help struggling working families get a raise. Of the 7.3 million workers currently earning the federal minimum wage of $5.15 per hour, 61% are women and 72% are breadwinning adults, not teenagers in their first after-school job."



I notified my senators and representative, I hope you'll do the same. NOW makes it easy to take action. Let everyone know: if you really care about family values, you'll take this action to support families.

Remember what's really wrong with Kansas
