As of Friday, Alaskan businesses will no longer be allowed to pay disabled workers less than the minimum wage, which is currently $9.84 an hour.

“Workers who experience disabilities are valued members of Alaska’s workforce,” said the state’s Department of Labor and Workforce Development Acting Commissioner Greg Cashen, in a press release. “They deserve minimum wage protections as much as any other Alaskan worker.”

Hell fucking yeah!

ALL 50 STATES! ALL 50 STATES!

Fuck yes! Put Goodwill and other companies that take advantage of ADA loopholes OUT OF FUCKING BUSINESS!!!

Way to hurt disabled people, good job everyone, you did it, disabled people will be out of work. [applauds]

What the fuck are you talking about ??? What is wrong with capitalists

Hi @vaporwavevocap , you‘re an asshole.

“Either disabled people should be paid a pittance or they should not be employed, because they do not deserve even minimum wage.”

Drop dead.

People shouldn’t be forced to work for a wage you have chosen for them, they can advocate for their own salary, the minimum wage is horrible for workers in general. @feetpicdealer @derelict-stranger

I’m actually opposed to the wage system but in your utopia bosses still crack down on union negotiating so I don’t think you thought this one through lmao

People shouldn’t be forced to work for a wage you have chosen for them,

“oh nooooooo i have been forced to be paid a living wage, help, now i will be able to pay my rent, someone please stop this communist oppression and pay me less money”

also “you have chosen for them”??? as if i, personally, am the one setting the minimum wage? as if the minimum wage isn’t itself a result of people collectively advocating for their own salary? and as if the alternative isn’t people being forced to work for a wage their boss has chosen for them? lmao

On this day, 11 July 1937, Jack Sirai, a Japanese cook who went to Spain to fight the fascists during the civil war, was killed in combat. A volunteer in the American Abraham Lincoln Brigade, he was shot dead after volunteering to fetch supplies for his starving unit. He was buried that night beside Oliver Law, an African-American volunteer.
In this podcast we tell the story of the Spanish civil war: https://workingclasshistory.com/2018/07/29/spanish-civil-war-podcast/ https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1164859590365856/?type=3
