Raising the federal minimum wage will help turn poor workers into active consumers. It will create more customers for small business and in turn create more jobs. Recently a bill failed to pass that would have raised the federal minimum wage to $10.10. Let this petition represent the people's vote. If you believe raising minimum wage would help you or someone you know then sign this petition and help put the wheels in motion to lift millions of Americans out of poverty.
This petition was inspired by Nick Hanauer's memo titled "My Fellow Zillionaires". You can Google it and check it out for yourself.
