Many companies, admittedly, are in a bind when it comes to raises. Inflation means their own costs are soaring.
But miserly raises next year will exact a price of their own — not just for employees, but for the companies they work for.

Watching the Brandy Cinderella reunion and in such a happy place as a result. My favorite version of Cinderella growing up. I didn’t realize at ten years only when it came out how revolutionary it was. #Cinderella1997
Rep. Adam Kinzinger: “President Trump did not fail to act during the 187 minutes between leaving the Ellipse and telling the mob to go home. He chose not to act.” https://t.co/OOsWS0UdhJ
SCOTUS this week:
- Only states can regulate abortion
- States can’t regulate firearms
- The Environmental Protection Agency can’t protect the environment
- States have power over Indian Country
- Miranda rights aren’t *really* necessary
What an unmitigated disaster.
Today, the Supreme Court not only reversed nearly 50 years of precedent, it relegated the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues—attacking the essential freedoms of millions of Americans.
Because of Trump, Mitch McConnell, and the Republican-controlled Supreme Court, American women today have less freedom than their mothers.
The hypocrisy is raging; the harm is endless. Democrats cannot let this assault stand. We will organize and vote to restore our rights. -NP
“My daughter, who is on the cusp of womanhood, has fewer rights and less access…than there was back then," says one mother I spoke with outside the Supreme Court today. She said it doesn’t feel like “passing the torch - it feels like we failed." https://t.co/q7B2J14LFo
American democracy if it is to endure needs a SCOTUS widely accepted as an impartial referee, but this Court, by how it was constituted & by rulings that appear to be more about policy than law, has for many forfeited its legitimacy. Our democracy is in deeper danger as a result.
Physicians must treat in line with patients' wishes and standards of care. Some medical ethicists say that abortion bans will force doctors to disregard these obligations in order to follow the law. https://t.co/zxVPNtXcWp
We were once thought of as a model of democracy and freedom and now, we are far from that. While we have not always lived up to the ideal of being created equal, I fear we have strayed so far from it that dark times are ahead.
This November will be the most consequential election to defend our rights. Republicans are out of step with America – nearly 80% of us support the right to abortion. We, the pro-choice majority, must hold every anti-choice elected official accountable.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: “People will die because of this decision. And we will never stop until abortion rights are restored in the United States of America.” https://t.co/S4bIaz7bWH
Prior to Roe v. Wade being overturned, criminal defense lawyers warned of a new chapter of mass incarceration akin to what's been seen during the "war on drugs" if abortion is banned: https://t.co/FsWJyJxyXQ
