"Hi, my name is _______. I am a Montgomery County resident and voter.

I am calling to let you know I support the bill for a $15 minimum wage by 2020. I hope you will support a strong bill that covers all workers--no exceptions, no exemptions--and that as a member of HHS you will take the first step by voting to pass this legislation through committee.

Thank you for taking my call and listening to the community!"

Did you make the call?
