Low-Wage Federal Workers Call on Obama for Living Wage Executive Order
Federal workers employed by contractors at low wages to operate concessions and clean federal buildings walked off the job today to urge President Barack Obama to use his executive authority to establish a living wage requirement for contractors that do business with the government.
Today, low-wage workers employed by federal contractors are striking. @barackobama could give them a #livingwage with the stroke of a pen.
