In July the House of Representatives—including Rep. Chellie Pingree and Rep. Jared Golden—voted for the Raise the Wage Act, which would gradually raise the minimum wage to $15 by 2024. However, it still awaits a vote in the Senate and Senators Angus King and Susan Collins have not yet said if they will support it.

Show our senators that small business owners support a living wage for all Americans. Sign on as a public supporter of the Raise the Wage Act today:

The Trump administration just announced they’re rolling back Obama-era rules expanding overtime protections and denying thousands of Mainers the right to be compensated for their work.

The good news is that Maine legislators have a chance to fight back and pass a bill, LD 402, to put Obama’s overtime protections in place for more Maine workers. It’s their chance to stand against Trump and stand up for us.
 
Sign on to our open letter to lawmakers today and urge them to oppose Trump’s rollback of overtime protections and support LD 402:

Thanks to you and the support of over 200 Maine small business owners, this year Maine became the first state in the nation to enact a paid time off policy. Now hundreds of thousands of workers will not have to decide between going to work sick and losing a crucial day’s pay. Thank you!
