$15 is not even a living wage for a single person right now. A living wage is at, according to the calculator, I think about 1753 or 1758. I can't remember the exact sense. Nevertheless, Not only do we have to advocate for that in Harrisburg, but once we do that, guess what, our providers, they're going to need access to additional revenue if that were to occur so that they can pay that amount. So it calls for strong intergovernmental cooperation between local, state and federal government. And that's something that I will be unwavering in my support of and for all of the providers.
