    Wake up Mississippi 7.25 per hour min wage

    YOU TOO North Carolina
    Maybe you should dig a little deeper. Mississippi and North Carolina are 2 of the five states that do not have a state minimum wage. It seems you don't have much room to talk, Florida's minimum wage is only $8.65. If you really want to talk about low minimum wage, go after either Georgia of Montana who only have a minimum wage of $5.15. Now I realize that these numbers are going into 2021 and with Bidenflation, who knows what the adjusted number is now.
    Minimum wage in America: How many people are earning $7.25 an hour?

      Biden administration to provide over $13 billion in aid to help American families lower energy bills


      • Vice President Kamala Harris plans to announce the new initiative while visiting a sheet metal workers’ training facility and union hall in Boston later Wednesday.
      • HHS will release $4.5 billion in Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program funding, which helps pay energy bills and energy related home repairs for families.
      • The Biden administration will also provide roughly $9 billion to help low- and moderate-income families lower energy costs by making energy-efficient upgrades to their homes.


      The Biden administration is providing over $13 billion in aid to help low- and moderate-income Americans lower their energy costs, including grants to pay electric bills as well other incentives to make energy-efficient upgrades to their homes.

      Vice President Kamala Harris plans to announce the new initiative while visiting a sheet metal workers’ training facility and union hall in Boston later Wednesday, a senior administration official told reporters in a call Tuesday. The announcement reflects the administration’s efforts to lower energy costs amid extreme temperature shifts from climate change.

      Under the initiative, the Department of Health and Human Services will release $4.5 billion in Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program funding, which helps pay energy bills and energy-related home repairs for families. The amount will include $100 million from President Joe Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and $1 billion in emergency funding that the administration requested earlier this year, the official said.

      “We know that winter heating bills account for the largest share of low-income households’ home energy needs. So it is imperative that the funds reach households as efficiently and effectively as possible,” the official said.

      The Biden administration will also provide roughly $9 billion to help low- and moderate-income families lower energy costs by making energy-efficient upgrades to their homes.

      The funding will help up to 1.6 million homes, including installing 500,000 heat pumps.

      Under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, an estimated 700,000 homes will be weatherized due to the revised Weatherization Assistance Program, putting the administration on track to reach its goal of weatherizing 2 million homes, according to the White House.

      “In sum, these programs will make these cost-saving upgrades more accessible for low- and moderate-income families as states gain momentum toward deploying at least 12 million heat pumps by 2030,” the White House said, according to a statement.

      Harris has traveled the country over the past several months to promote the administration’s economic priorities under the Inflation Reduction Act. More than $300 million from the initiative will be invested in the state of Massachusetts.

                        ... great for any voter, including yourself, if you need new doors, windows, heat pumps or a fuel subsidy for your home!

                        This is a big move to reduce America's energy dependence on foreign oil plus help clean the environment.

                        The Republican plan, nada, zippo, nothing.

                        Let the peasants freeze while the rich enjoy their record profits from their oil company stocks and dividends.

                        Specifically what Biden energy policy are you referring to?

                          I'm convinced that you work for the DNC. I mean, the reality of the situation is that energy prices have skyrockted under democrat leadership. And that's why they're about to lose control of congress.

                            ... the great thing about the new energy bill is that it does not require any Republican votes!

                            The money has already been allocated from the ground breaking US Infrastructure Bill passed into law earlier this year.

                            ... meanwhile the war in Ukraine has no end in sight forcing energy prices higher regardless of what politician is in office.

                              I remember when Obama ran for president. He said, and I quote:

                              "Under my energy plan, energy prices will necessarily skyrocket."


                              Uttered in 2008, still haunting Obama
