As the U.S. Senate race between Democrat Chris Murphy and Republican Linda McMahon draws to a close, notably absent from the two campaigns’ messages is any upfront position or debates about raising the minimum wage.
So where do the two candidates for Senate stand on this important issue?
Unfortunately, McMahon continues to keep voters in the dark about where she stands on increasing the minimum wage. The last time McMahon ran for U.S. Senate, in 2010, she could not even answer a question about what the minimum wage was! This year, she has yet to articulate a clear position to Connecticut voters on the minimum wage: Would she increase it, cut it, keep it the same or eliminate it all together?
