Alexandria Ocasio Cortez - "Not All Dems Are The Same"

[AnonymityX1000]

The House already passed the $15 minimum wage, what will likely pass right now will be a bill to take it to 10/11 right now. Force the vote is a vanity campaign there is not the level of support needed for M4A.

How do we get that level tho? By never bringing it up? It's an effort to get politicians to match their constituency.

They don't have the votes for a $15 minimum wage in the Senate, the senators from West Virginia, Montana and Maine oversee very rural areas whose businesses will suffer for it.

:stoptislime:. That is not why they voted against it.

At least dare them to vote no for a raise of minimum wage during a worldwide pandemic. It's good politics vs those out of line Senators.

You missed the whole stimulus debate and vote?

I said that both the Progressives in congress and Rose Twitter have no plan.

Rose Twitter isn't real.

Progressive can't create a "plan" out of thin air - there needs to be on-the-ground campaigning across the U.S. to effectuate local and state-level change.

That's the excuse, its not a real issue.

They're just pro-business cowards, and the people of their state aren't mounting enough opposition.

I think politicians mostly match their constituencies.

Big businesses have no problem paying higher wages for the most part. Amazon pays 15, Walmart pays an average of 13/14 to hourly workers, Costco is 16.

If I'm AOC I throw hands

Ppl say she has to be professional but they're wrong

Isn't more the parliamentarian and the Senate insisting on following her advice stopping it in the Senate?
Quickest way to shut up Jimmy Dore types is to stand up to Democratic leadership. Something he thinks she will never do and something Cori Bush has admitted the Squad has never talked about doing in the future. Until then . . .

What they don't understand is that no one on the left really has a champion. At this point we don't care if you lose, we just want you to fight.
