Join POWER’s Bishop Dwayne Royster alongside We The People-PA, SEIU, Community Legal Services, Make the Road-PA, and other advocates on April 18th at 10:30 AM for a rally to end local preemption and raise the minimum wage!For too long, corporate greed has stifled a $15-an-hour minimum wage. Even worse, state laws have prevented Philadelphia from setting its own minimum wage, even when the cost of living is much higher than in other places.It’s time we make our voices heard and fight for a Fair Wage!
