Congressmen Harkin (IA)/Miller (CA) are introducing a bill to raise the minimum pay to $10.10 (from $7.25).
What do the 10 largest occupations where employees make under $10.10 per hour have in common?
In each and every one, women are the majority of workers. In 7 of these occupations, women are two-thirds or more of the workers. As our new infographic shows, the minimum wage is a women’s issue.
Let’s watch and see if the minimum wage passes.
