California Dem Proposes 600% Minimum Wage Hike

California Democrat Congresswoman Barbara Lee advocated for a $50 minimum wage, citing the high cost of living in areas such as the Bay Area.
She argued that current wages are insufficient for families to survive.
“In the Bay Area, I believe it was the United Way … came out with a report that very recently $127,000 for a family of four is just barely enough to get by,” Lee said.
“Just do the math. Of course, we have national minimum wages that we need to raise to a living wage,” Lee added. “We’re talking about $20, $25 — fine. But I have got to be focused on what California needs and what the affordability factor is when we calculate this wage,” she said.
