Seth Harris: “So comp time is not like cash wages. If you pay somebody cash overtime they control how it is spent--the worker controls…”

Raising the minimum wage would be the first on my list.

To make America once again a magnet for jobs, the budget invests in high-tech manufacturing and innovation, clean energy, and infrastructure, while cutting red tape to help businesses grow.

if we are able to raise wages across the board, particularly for low-wage and middle-skill workers, we are simply going to have more people spending more money.

Thank you for the opportunity to testify about the urgency of raising the Federal minimum wage.
