Aim high, kids!
In pushing for a minimum wage hike, Rep. J.R. Gray preps the General Assembly for a big minimum wage hike (and, in doing so, takes a meat cleaver to the Queen's English):
"We need to proceed forward with full speed," said Rep. J.R. Gray, D-Benton. Gray is chairman of the Labor and Industry Committee, which has jurisdiction over minimum wage. "Congress has sat on their duff since 1997 and did nothing to help these lower-paid people."Get ready for the hike to come soon if U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi can't get the job done in Washington.
