2020 MT Senatorial race: on Jobs


Wilmot Collins: Fight to increase minimum wage to $15

A $15 minimum wage isn't just the moral thing to do, it's the pragmatic and economic thing to do. With more purchasing power, more Americans would buy homes, take vacations, go back to school--stimulating the economy from the ground up, not trickle down. Join me in the #FightFor15 and when we win, the Senate will be one seat closer to making a $15 minimum wage the law of the land.

Wilmot Collins: End misclassifying employees as independent contractors

It is critical that we take the necessary action to maintain a strong middle class. We can work harder to implement basic labor standards for employees. We can make sure corporations are not gaming our system to benefit shareholders and CEOs rather than the workers trying to make ends meet. We will protect a worker's right to collectively bargain for better wages and employment, as well as fight to end misclassifying employees as independent contractors.
