Voting record

Abstain

“We agree with most of the articles in this proposal, however, the minimum wage policy presents a problem. Before abolishing it, we should require unions to negotiate collective bargaining agreements with companies, and these agreements should establish minimum wages for many sectors, in addition to fostering high union membership Since our workers are the lifeblood of our economy, and employers could exploit this with excessively low wages, we would also need stricter labor laws”
