Democrats Acting On Campaign Promises (9/11 Recommendations and Minimum Wage)
In this, their first full week in control of the 110th Congress, Democrats are making good on promises they made to the American people during the campaign.
Yesterday, the House of Representatives passed legislation which, if passed in the Senate and signed by George Bush, will implement recommendations made by the 9/11 Commission.
Today, acting on another pledge, they voted to increase the minimum wage for the first time since in about a decade.
