Senate Covid Bill
The House has passed a $1.9 trillion Covid relief bill including a raise in the federal minimum wage to $15. The Senate parliamentarian has ruled that this provision cannot be included in any Senate version being passed via the reconciliation process, however, although that ruling is non-binding, and can be overridden by the Senate's presiding officer, VP Kamala Harris. So what do you think: will the minimum wage increase pass as part of the final Senate version of the bill?
