Premise: We have fought to try to raise the minimum wage in the last years. But the Republican leadership of the House and Senate won't even let us have a vote on it. We're not allowed to vote on it. They don't want to raise the minimum wage. The minimum wage is the lowest minimum wage value it has been in our nation in 50 years.
Hypothesis: The republican leaders do not want a higher minimum wage, that is the reason why they do not allow a vote on it
