Sinema Gives Bouncy Thumbs-Down To $15 Wage

The Arizona Republic reports:

The only thing Sen. Kyrsten Sinema wants to give Arizonans and the nation is “cake.” Forget the $15-an-hour wage or clearing the way for immigration and election reform. Sinema apparently just wants the little people to eat cake. She literally carried a cake to the Senate when she voted against Sen. Bernie Sanders’ proposal to keep the $15-an-hour wage hike in the $1.9 billion COVID-19 relief plan. Her spokesperson later said Sinema brought the cake for Senate staffers who had been working through the night.

Senator Sinema, any advice for the 839,000 Arizonans who make less than $15 an hour and are one crisis from bankruptcy? pic.twitter.com/tX9EpcXRhB
