<div class="ak-field-box ak-field-box-borderless"><div>Hello Delegate <em>(Name)</em>, my name is ____. I am calling you on Valentines Day to ask you have a heart for workers by voting YES on HB166 to raise the statewide minimum wage to $15/hour. I'm in strong support of the Fight for 15 because the cost of living in Maryland is high and our current minimum wage is not enough to cover basic needs like rent and water bills. Maryland's working families are struggling. This legislation would give over 800,000 Marylanders a raise, and circulate over $2.6 billion back into our economy. The Fight for 15 is a win for both workers and business owners so I urge you to support a "clean $15" by voting YES on HB166<em> </em>with no carve-outs. Thank you. </div></div>
