    Default Rashida Tlaib on Kyrsten Sinema’s ‘No’ Vote to Raise Minimum Wage

    Awwwwww, poor baby. Fact is, such a hike would be more harmful to small to mid size businesses than it will help. You may see a few increases, but then others lowered hours or others out of jobs entirely. Businesses will restructure or increase prices or do whatever it takes to increase their bottom dollar and profits.

    Rashida Tlaib on Kyrsten Sinema’s ‘No’ Vote to Raise Minimum Wage: ‘No One Should Ever Be This Happy to Vote Against Uplifting People’

    Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) expressed outrage after Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) gave an emphatic thumbs down to express her rejection of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) attempt to make a $15 minimum wage hike a reality.

    Sinema made waves Friday when she gave a thumbs down as she joined Republicans in rejecting Democrats’ attempts to raise the federal minimum wage, drawing ire from progressives, such as far-left “Squad” member Rashida Tlaib:

    “No one should ever be this happy to vote against uplifting people out of poverty. This is Senator Sinema voting no on $15 minimum wage,” Tlaib remarked:



    Sinema was one of seven Democrats and one independent who joined Republicans in knocking down the progressive effort to raise the wage. Others included Sens. Joe Manchin (D-WV), Jon Tester (D-MT), Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Maggie Hassan (D-NH), Chris Coons (D-DE), Tom Carper (D-DE), and Angus King (I-ME):

    I call minimum wage laws Black Kid Unemployment Acts. I heard a saying of Thomas Sowell the other day, "There are no solutions. There are only trade-offs."

    If Tlaib is crying, something good must have happened. a $15 minimum wage would kill the US economy and put unemployment and failed small businesses at record levels. Just as the Dems want.
