Tallahassee, FL. - Florida For A Fair Wage announced today that the 人兽性交 Action Fund听 is joining the campaign to raise Florida鈥檚 minimum wage. The non-profit has donated $250,000 to support the constitutional amendment and will work with Florida for a Fair Wage as it campaigns for voters to approve the ballot initiative.

鈥淚鈥檓 proud to welcome 人兽性交 Action Fund听 to this important fight,鈥� said Florida for a Fair Wage Chairman John Morgan. 鈥淭hey have been on the right side when it comes to issues like legalizing medical marijuana and giving formerly incarcerated people the right to vote after they have served their sentences. Having them working with us shows that there is a strong and growing consensus that all Floridians deserve to earn a living wage.鈥�

The current minimum wage is $8.46 an hour and the constitutional amendment would raise the minimum wage to $10 in September, 2021, with the minimum wage then increasing by a dollar every year until it reaches $15 in 2026. After that, future minimum wage increases would occur based on inflation, just like Florida鈥檚 constitution currently requires.听听

Voters will determine the fate of the constitutional amendment when they go to the polls on Nov. 3, 2020. A 60 percent super majority is required to pass a constitutional amendment in Florida.

Emily Early, staff attorney for the Economic Justice Project at the 人兽性交 Action Fund said a minimum wage increase was necessary to address economic inequality and give people a chance to lift themselves out of poverty.

鈥淭here was a point where you could make a living on the minimum wage,鈥� Early said. 鈥淣ow, the $8.46 minimum wage in Florida will not pull an individual out of poverty even if they鈥檙e working 40 hours a week. And if you鈥檙e trying to support a family, it鈥檚 even more difficult.鈥�

There are hundreds of thousands of hard working Floridians living in poverty, many of them low-income women from communities of color. A $15 minimum wage would give people a chance to break the cycle of poverty and lead a more economically stable life, Early听 said.

While some opponents have argued that a higher minimum wage will hurt workers, research has shown that isn鈥檛 the case, with the vast majority of workers benefiting from an increased minimum wage.
