Ranking Member Cassidy, Romney, Colleagues Introduce Bill to Raise Wages, Protect American Jobs

Press Release

Date: Sept. 13, 2023
Location: Washington, D.C.
Issues: Business, Consumers, and Employees

"Few issues are as important to the American people as the availability of good jobs in our communities, and I recognize the difficulties for anyone who is trying to make ends meet while earning the federal minimum wage that has clearly not kept pace with inflation.

Our bill provides a commonsense solution to increase wages for millions of Americans for the first time in ten years while avoiding the unintended consequence of small businesses being forced to eliminate jobs or reduce hours for their employees."
