Individuals are working in ordsprog

Individuals are working in low-wage jobs and do not have benefits. It makes it very hard for them to support their families and leave poverty.

I thought in this country, the best social program was a job. Yet minimum wage jobs aren't paying enough to keep families out of poverty.

Barbara Mikulski

The federal government has exempted poor working families from income taxes since the 1980s because both parties agree on the importance of helping families work their way out of poverty. Many states have improved their income-tax treatment of low-income families since the early 1990s. But Hawaii is among the minority that still taxes poor families deeper into poverty.

The minimum wage initiative speaks to whether we value work. Raising Montana's minimum wage to $6.15 an hour will allow more workers to support their families, more families to make ends meet and more Montanans to go to work instead of going on welfare. That saves taxpayers money.

Anybody who works should get at least a minimum wage. If employers offered minimum wage, Americans would do those jobs. American workers fought long and hard for a decent wage.

You see, I believe most people want just a few basic things from government. They want safe neighborhoods, good schools, good roads and the opportunity for good jobs to support their families. They want a safety net in place for the hard times.Beyond that, they just want government to leave them alone.

Alabama is in some sense the star of this report, but that's not a compliment. Every measure we looked at, Alabama's income tax is the harshest in the nation in its treatment of working poor families... Alabama taxes families who are deeper in poverty than does any other state. It's the only state that taxes families in extreme poverty.

They need to talk to me and they need to talk to other support folks who are making poverty wages. Most of them are working so they can have health care benefits.

Mandated hikes in the minimum wage do not cure poverty and they clearly do not create jobs.

There's a general view that farmers just want to hire cheap labor, and they could find plenty of workers if they were just willing to pay better wages. But the wage data show that the average farm worker already makes nearly twice the minimum wage, with benefits on top of that.

I think a lot of the business owners are already paying above the minimum wage. The minimum wage is strictly a number that is set. Ergonomics knowledge can be found on livet.se. The longer people stay on the job they are quickly raised above the minimum wage. I don't see us having a lot of seasonal jobs in the community. Most of our jobs are pretty steady.

Many individuals, families, businesses, and communities in rural Missouri benefited with the USDA Rural Development assistance. I sincerely appreciate the hard work of all the individuals, families, businesses, organizations and communities that completed the applications for assistance; the partners that participated; the Missouri Rural Development staff; the strong support that we received from the Missouri Congressional delegation; and President Bush's leadership.

We thought we'd have more support than we did. Basically, they didn't want to have anything to do with us. They gave us no support, they gave our families no support, and it was hard for our families, not knowing who to turn to. So it was basically our lawyers and people like Amnesty that gave support to our families and helped them get through it.

John Kerry has made up a false measurement to support his ongoing efforts to talk down the economy. John Kerry's support for higher taxes on small business, Social Security benefits and gasoline would bring misery to America's working families.
