Boxer pushes for $10 minimum wage
[THEHILL] Senator Barbara Call me Senator! Boxer
Senator-for-Life from Caliphornia...
 (D-Calif.) said Monday night she wants the minimum wage increased to $10, a nearly $3 boost from its current level of $7.25.
Babs may well be in the running for dumbest Senator now that Joe Biden is Vice President...
"I think about $10. I think that would be right," Boxer said in an appearance on MSNBC's "The Ed Show."

Boxer said that a boost to the minimum wage would "make a huge difference."

"People are struggling," she said. "The difference between the very wealthy and the working poor has grown."

Boxer also said an increase in the minimum wage would advance the core causes of the Obama presidency.
It will certainly advance the core causes of the labor unions who have contracts that increase wages whenever the minimum wage increases...
"We raise that minimum wage, and we move forward with the vision of this president that we have, which is everyone pays their fair share; we make investments where it matters. It's going to be a great century for us.
