Pramila Jayapal: Raise the federal minimum wage

Pramila will fight for raising the federal minimum wage so that the disproportionate number of workers of color in low-wage jobs can be paid fairly for their work. She will also work to stop the tremendous concentrations of wealth that prevent minorities from owning homes or saving for retirement. She will push to invest in jobs specifically targeted at our most disadvantaged young people across America, as well as pushing to invest back into rebuilding our infrastructure through a green-jobs economy.
