> The minimum wage has only been raised 3 times in the last 30 years.
> And the minimum wage for workers with earnings from tips has been
> stuck at the impossibly low $2.13/hour since 1991. It is well past
> time for a raise. Senator Harkin (D-IA) and Rep. George Miller (D-CA)
> are sponsoring The Fair Minimum Wage Act, which would increase the
> minimum wage in 3 steps to $10.10/hour.
>
> A large coalition of groups is coming together to make 2014 a year of
> action to raise the minimum wage. If you're like us, you are longing
> to work towards real improvements in people's lives - a refreshing
> alternative to constantly playing defense. Raising the minimum wage
> offers that opportunity - and this webinar will get you started (or
> give you new tools to work with).
>
> Our distinguished presenters:
>
> Senator Tom Harkin: Senator Harkin is Chair of the Senate Health,
> Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee and the lead Senate sponsor
> of legislation to raise the minimum wage. He is in his fifth term in
> the Senate, and has announced his retirement at the end of this term.
> He is a tireless champion for workers and low-income people.
>
