Apparently most Republicans what the increase, so do small business owners, according to a “report” Obama read.

“Well I work at Target, so it affects me directly,” said Brandon Baron, who is the junior Vice President of the NAACP at CCSU “(I hope they) get this bill passed and raise the minimum wage.”

In Connecticut, a Quinnipiac Poll released Tuesday showed that 71 percent of people polled support raising the state’s minimum wage. Gov. Dannel Malloy has been a supporter of that and has pushed to raise it.

In addition to Malloy, the president was expected to be joined by the governors of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Vermont.

Much easier than getting a second job, right Brandon?

Yeah, when I was solely supporting my wife and daughter with a 28K first year’s teacher salary, I got something called a “second job” Brandon.
