Rep Rashida Tlaib Calls For $20 An Hour Minimum Wage
 
By Daily Caller

Democratic Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib called for a federal minimum wage of up to $20 an hour at a “One Fair Wage” event in Detroit on Sunday.

“Big fights like this one, $15. When we started it, it should have been $15. Now I think it should be $20 … It should be $20 an hour. $18-20 an hour,” Tlaib said in a video posted by America Rising on Monday.

Tlaib and Michigan Democrat Debbie Dingell participated in an event called “Server for an Hour” to support the Raise the Wage Act that passed the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives Thursday.

Now that ought to help the impoverished she claims to represent by spreading airport style pricing everywhere. How will they pay for $10 tacos or Big Macs?

She should cut her salary to $20 an hour. With all congressional vacations and time off, she'd make about $160.00.
