Speaking of Sen. Josh Hawley,
(From MSNBC)
"Suddenly, he sounds like a pro-union Democrat. Where was he during the years we fought to expand health care access for working families?
Where was his voice when we championed higher wages and economic dignity for the very people he now claims to defend?
Even more striking is the record he hopes we forget.
When that very senator was a state attorney general and a U.S. Senate candidate, he opposed a ballot initiative that would have gradually raised the state's minimum wage from $7.85 to $12 an hour."
