Raise the Minimum Wage for Working Families

Workers who can’t afford to be customers can't support community businesses. People who can't support themselves on a full-time salary turn to government services to survive, forcing taxpayers to bankroll billion-dollar companies. One person working three part-time jobs with no benefits is not what America is about. 

I want to join in telling the special interests in Harrisburg that it's time to raise the minimum wage to a living wage in Pennsylvania. Every state around us has a higher minimum wage – it’s time to help create an economy here that works for all of us.

By signing this petition, I support raising the minimum wage so all workers can benefit as our economy grows.
