“As Democrats try to plot a way forward to raise the minimum wage to $15-an-hour, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) announced that he’s working on a separate bill to increase the long stagnant minimum wage while ‘ensuring businesses cannot hire illegal immigrants,'” NBC News reports.
“Romney said he’s working on the bill with Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) and it also includes a provision for the minimum wage to ‘increase automatically with inflation.'”
