| Quote | "The House measure contains only modest tax cuts, worth $1.3 billion over the next 10 years, and is focused on the small businesses that are most likely to be harmed by a higher minimum wage, like mom-and-pop restaurants. We would have preferred a straightforward minimum wage increase. But the House bill is a reasonable response to the Senate’s refusal to move forward without tax cuts."
