The Seattle, Washington-based Freedom Socialist Party thinks the federal government should mandate a $20 per hour minimum wage.
This is a group that, earlier this year, also strongly supported the Seattle/Tacoma airport’s wage increase to $15, as well as the city of Seattle’s efforts to do the same.
