Therefore, the Senator proposes raising the minimum wage from the already generous $7.25 an hour to $9.25—an hour! This is a whopping nine dollar increase from the 1938 minimum wage of $.25. The middle class and the poor should sit up at attention after this generous proposal.
Then, to help our struggling employers, two dollars of this increase would be given back to corporations and other business owners to help defray the expense of the increased salary burden. The lowest tax bracket would also be increased from 15 percent to 25 percent to help pay for these changes and help keep the deficit to managable levels. This is compassionate conservatism we can believe in.
