I'm trying to read through the Dems' summary of their "Aim Higher Act", but even the summary is still sixteen pages long, and constantly refers to obscure programs and metrics that no one has ever loving heard of. i can only imagine how bad the actual bill text must be

though really, I'm used to reading boring legalese. I used to post in d&d, after all. the bigger problem is that I'm loving sick of reading "the GOP bill would cut this program, but not only are we not going to cut this program, we're also going to expand it in some minor way". its repeated over and over again, and I'm pretty sure the only reason half these changes were made was because the Dems also released a whitepaper directly comparing the two bills and wanted to pad it with more stuff

the GOP bill is directly mentioned by bill number no less than 33 times in that 16-page summary

it's not unionization, but a lil credit goes to bernie imo

Disneyland Resort workers approve contract that raises the minimum hourly wage to $15 by next year

edit: wait, they're union workers

Unions representing nearly 10,000 workers at the Disneyland Resort ended a months-long labor dispute by voting Thursday in favor of a three-year contract that raises hourly wages by as much as 20% immediately and an additional 13% in January.

The employees — including candy makers, custodians, retail workers, attraction operators and others — voted by secret ballot throughout the day at Disneyland’s Lincoln Theater in favor of an offer that raises the minimum hourly rate of $11 to $13.25 immediately and to $15 starting in January, three years before California’s minimum wage is scheduled to reach that level. An increase to $15.50 an hour is slated for June 2020.

Resort employees with higher salaries, such as truck drivers, would get more modest wage increases, with workers who earn $20 an hour receiving a raise of 60 cents an hour immediately and an additional 75 cents in January. Hourly pay would increase to $21.99 in June 2020.

All workers will get a retroactive pay increase of either 3% or 50 cents an hour, whichever is greater, back to June 17, 2018.

I lean towards grifter but I'm really not certain. I've spent a hilarious portion of my life slacking off at work to ponder this question.

Also, I feel like a lot of ppl just know her as a kook from twitter and don't realize that she was an elected Tory MP lmao
