| Message | Mr. Speaker, Again, a government dictated minimum wage is UN-necessary because workers have a RIGHT to organize and collectively bargain for a livable wage under a Free Market Contract. ---The Capitalist WORKING FAMILIES Party |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, the reason we need to organize to fight patronat is because the government does not protect us. We ask the government to do their job and protect the weaks of our society. Audrey-Sophie Black-White Leader of Friends of Nature |

| Message | Mr speaker The higher the minimum wage, the fewer jobs are available. We oppose. Plus this is the minimum wage, most suited to the teenager looking for job experience or by a college student. This shouldn't be treated as the backbone wage of the work force which is comprised of qualified adults. |

| Message | MR. Speaker. No one is arguing for the right to work, we re arguing for the right to get a fair work, with a living wage. people who don't pay living, do not deserve to be in business. Audrey-Sophie Black-White Leader of Friends of Nature |
