Reconstructing American Wages
Jon sent an email to members of the campaign yesterday highlighting a few problems with Senator Conrad Burns’ stance on what workers rebuilding the Gulf Coast should be paid.
The thing is, the Senator and the White House think it’s OK to hand out no-bid contracts without competition but tell those companies sure to profit from the reconstruction that they can pay their workers minimum wage.
Jon Tester is sending a different message though:
I support the prevailing wage standard ??? because I believe in a fair day??s pay for a fair day??s work. I don??t think you can rebuild America by tearing American workers down.
