Why haven't states like Washington, and New York, both of whom of raised to $15/hr experienced significant job losses? Virginia Foxx's argument is a farce, and most probably stated in bad faith. An increase to $15 would stimulate the economy by putting more money into more hands of people that NEED to spend it. Workers don't hide money in off-shore accounts. They can't afford to. Vote Virginia Foxx out off office, North Carolina! It's time for the American working person to start living in dignity again!
