Keep federal contractors minimum wage at $7.25.

Created by M.S. on January 29, 2014

President Obama plans on signing an executive order raising minimum wage of federal contractors to $10.10. It originally is at $7.25 witch is also minimum wage for the common person. Minimum wage is paid to an unskilled person, and working for the government doesn't make you a skilled worker. So they don't deserve a $3 pay increase. Also workers that have been there for 4 years 5 years etc that EARNED there pay increase will also want a pay increase. Before you know it President Obama will also want a pay increase.
