Americaβs 20 Largest Low-Wage Employers and the Affordability Crisis - Institute for Policy Studies

Roughly half of U.S. workers wouldnβt pay taxes under Democratβs plan
Sen. Chris Van Hollenβs tax relief plan could benefit tens of millions of middle-class workers, with a focus on those making at or below a living wage.
Every politician in America who says they support working people should embrace this idea that allows working people keep more of the money they make, that stops the federal government from taxing people into poverty, and adds nothing to the budget deficit.

The Trump Administration is considering asking Congress for new emergency spending for the Iran War.
Hell no. This is our chance to draw a line in the sand and use our power to stop this war before it kills more Americans and sends the Middle East into more chaos.
