Mainstream Dems finally embrace fight-for-15 [Sean Higgins / Washington Examiner]
In arguably the first positive thing to come out of the D party since losing the election, Congressional Democrat leaders Pelosi, Schumer, and a handful of other key Democrats introduced the “Raise The Wage Act” Bill, picking up on the popular $15 minimum wage element of the Sanders campaign.
It would’ve been a valuable plank for the party in 2016, had they embraced it unequivocally, but at least there is now hope the Democrats will have something to present to middle class and working class swing-state voters in 2018.
