Did you know that the federal minimum wage has not been raised since 2009?
That's 16 years and it's still sitting at $7.25!
Meanwhile the cost of living has only increased and CEO pay has skyrocketed.

It’s been 16 years since Congress raised the minimum wage. Meanwhile, folks are out here trying to survive on $7.25 an hour. In this economy?!
I’m standing with my Labor Caucus colleagues to #RaiseTheWage, because $7.25 ain’t cutting it.

$7.25: Minimum wage, maximum struggle. Seeing it like this is a stark reminder of how little it really is. #RaiseTheWage

Did you know that the federal minimum wage has not been raised since 2009?
It's still sitting at $7.25 because of GOP obstruction.
Meanwhile the cost of living has only increased and CEO pay has skyrocketed.
Workers nowadays need $25 an hour for a living wage.

Walmart, Amazon, and McDonald's are some of the most profitable companies on Earth — and they pay poverty wages to workers, then let taxpayers subsidize their labor through Medicaid and SNAP.
That's not the free market. That's corporate welfare.

This man has never supported raising the minimum wage. He calls welfare programs “addictive” but defends billion-dollar subsidies for fossil fuel companies. It’s a rigged game—and Mike Lee’s helping deal the cards. #RaiseTheWage #EndCorporateWelfare #MikeLee

801,000 Illinoisans would benefit from raising the #MinimumWage. That’s why I’m proud to support the Raise the Wage Act of 2025—to deliver long-overdue relief to the workers who power our essential industries and keep America running! #RaiseTheWage

$2.13 an hour for restaurant workers? That’s not a wage—it’s exploitation. Every worker deserves pay that reflects their worth. Time to #RaiseTheWage.

It’s been 16 years since Congress last raised the minimum wage, and $7.25/hr simply isn’t enough for working families to make ends meet.
My @laborcaucus.house.gov colleagues and I are fighting to #RaiseTheWage and give a pay bump to roughly 22 million Americans.

FACT: The federal minimum wage hasn't been raised since 2009, while billionaire wealth soared past $9 trillion and the cost of living has exploded.
That's 17 years!
Raising it isn't radical.
It's overdue respect for the people who do the actual work.

Amazon is the real welfare queen - their refusal to pay their workers a living wage is falling on the American taxpayer to cover the costs 👇
