Maloney: No Excuse for Congress’ Failure to Raise the Minimum Wage

Apr 30, 2014 Press Release
Representative Sean Patrick Maloney (NY-18) criticized Senate Republicans’ refusal to pass a bill increasing the federal minimum wage today. The Senate bill, which failed by a partisan procedural vote of 54-42, would raise the federal minimum wage from $7.25 to $10.10 over the next three years. Increasing the minimum wage to $10.10 would raise the living wage for nearly 1 million hardworking New Yorkers and their families, including tens of thousands of women who are twice as likely to earn the minimum wage.
