Richmond Supports SEIUs Rally to Raise the Wage | 2015-11-12 | 2015 | 2015-11 | Democrat | House | LA | Cedric Richmond | R000588 | richmond.house.gov | legacy | Washington, DC Today, Rep. Richmond (LA-02) issued the following statement in support of the rally by the SEIU to raise the minimum wage to $15 per hour: America needs a raise, said Rep. Richmond. Every day Americans are still struggling following the recession while the investor class has seen their incomes grow substantially. In America, if you work hard and play by the rules you should not have to live in poverty. Our nation is better than that and it is time to take action. I applaud the SEIUs effort to bring attention to this issue and I will continue to push my colleagues in Congress to address this to bring some relief to the millions of working families fighting to make ends meet. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
