	Pat Murphy on Jobs

Raised Iowa minimum wage to $7.25; now push for $10.10

Creating Good-Paying Jobs: The first bill Pat passed as Speaker of the Iowa House raised Iowa's minimum wage to $7.25/hour, two years before it became the federal standard. In Congress, Pat will work to pass Sen. Harkin's bill to raise the federal minimum wage to $10.10/hour, close unfair tax loopholes that reward companies who send American jobs overseas and strengthen apprenticeship and worker retraining programs targeted toward skills needed to prepare Iowans with good-paying local jobs.
