Please raise the minimum wage In las vegas. Times have changed and so have prices

Created by R.H. on June 08, 2014

Times have changed and so have prices. It is extreamly hard to pay rent, bills, buy food and clothing all on 8 something an hour. And Not everyone gets approved for welfare. All I ask is that you consider raising minimum wage to at least 11dollars an hour. For basic housing here in Las vegas, Nevada most decent places go for at least 700 dollars a month, and that's not including basic utilities. Las vegas is starting to become a family town once again, and as a Local It is very hard to provide for my family when I am only being paid 8 something an hour. So please consider raising our minimum wage. It would make a huge impact on the majority of the residents here. Please don't think that Las vegas all fun and games. We do have regular lives here as well.
