Kamala Harris says she will double federal minimum wage to $15.

Kamala Harris has announced plans to more than double the federal minimum wage if she wins the presidency.

The Democratic candidate has backed raising the current minimum wage from $7.25 an hour to at least $15.

It has remained frozen for the last 15 years: the longest stretch without an increase since standard pay was introduced in 1938.

She told NBC: “At least $15 an hour, but we’ll work with Congress, right? It’s something that is going through Congress.”

From the last 15 years, democrats were in power 10.

Now we have to believe they will raise it?
