And they, and myself, are for increased minimum wage

Which is why you're setting prerequisites for it.

Republicans also dislike restrictions on the wealthy, which it sounds like you’re not a fan of it either…are you a Republican?

I'm not a fan of coming up with prerequisites to stand in the way of raising wages. And I'm certainly no fan of the Republican argument that we can't raise wages because prices will rise, particularly not when prices already rise when wages stay stagnant like you and every other Republican wants.

Again, I didn't say we can't raise wages. I said I was for it. What prerequisite was mentioned that would stand in the way of increasing the minimum wage?
