in his final year as governor, Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf Calls On Legislature To Increase State Minimum Wage In Budget Speech

[basquebromance]

The legislature should tell him to **** off on anything and everything, until there's a full forensic audit and recanvass of 2020.

Why do you think its a "good idea" at all?

Very few people get the statutory minimum in the Commonwealth. And with those who do, the state's minimum wage is the same as Biden's minimum wage for the Federal government.

The great thing is that there are very few min wage investigations taking place and very few Labor and Industry investigators that need to be on the payroll to look into them.

Raise the min wage- particularly above Biden's Federal level- it will cost a pretty penny to regulate.
