(MY HIGH PLAINS) – Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden pushed his plan to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour if he defeats President Donald Trump in November.
Biden made the comments Monday afternoon while campaigning in Florida. “Fifteen dollars should be a minimum wage in the United States of America. Period,” Biden said.
His economic plans include raising the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour and expanding health insurance access, as well as investing billions of dollars in childcare, early childhood education and college tuition assistance.
