Bill: New Minimum Wage
Details
Submitted by[?]: Partido Socialista Democrático
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: June 3908
Description[?]:
| The Democratic Socialist Party (PSD) would like to propose a new minimum wage. Currently, we have not very encouraging minimum wages and it would be good for the country to raise it, increasing consumption levels and granting a boost to the people's living standards, specially for the poor, not the mention the increase on purchase power. We'd like to hear what other parties have to say about it and we hope to reach a consensus that benefits both the country and our workers. |
