You do know that this is the dominant poll being cited by both the left and the right concerning Obama’s emperor move on illegal immigration?

The one issue that the GOP will have trouble dealing with is the 65% wanting a minimum wage increase. One, because it is supported by concrete evidence in that 5 states (4 red and 1 blue) voted to increase the minimum wage, and two, over 60% in each of those states voted in favor of this.

“The one issue that the GOP will have trouble dealing with is the 65% wanting a minimum wage increase.”

Why not let the states deal with it then rather than at the federal level? Why should Arkansas have the same minimum wage as New York? If those states want it, then their people have spoken. Federal minimum wage is a major democrat issue - they ran on in 2014, they lost in big numbers. So why worry now - the next election is 2 years away. There are other more pressing issues.
